Pillow Book

Famous quotes containing the words pillow and/or book:

    “Weariness
    Can snore upon the flint, when resty sloth
    Finds the down pillow hard.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razorstrap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
