Famous quotes containing the words resting and/or place:
“We judge a horse not only by its pace on a racecourse, but also by its walk, nay, when resting in its stable.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
“It has come to be practically a sort of rule in literature, that a man, having once shown himself capable of original writing, is entitled thenceforth to steal from the writings of others at discretion. Thought is the property of him who can entertain it; and of him who can adequately place it. A certain awkwardness marks the use of borrowed thoughts; but, as soon as we have learned what to do with them, they become our own.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
