Scattered

Famous quotes containing the word scattered:

    Awake! the land is scattered with light, and see,
    Uncanopied sleep is flying from field and tree:

    The important question is not, what will yield to man a few scattered pleasures, but what will render his life happy on the whole amount.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    Thou blind man’s mark, thou fool’s self-chosen snare,
    Fond Fancy’s scum and dregs of scattered thought,
    Band of all evils, cradle of causeless care,
    Thou web of will whose end is never wrought;
    Desire! desire, I have too dearly bought
    With price of mangled mind thy worthless ware;
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
