Screen Rot

Famous quotes containing the words screen and/or rot:

    We like the chase better than the quarry.... And those who philosophize on the matter, and who think men unreasonable for spending a whole day in chasing a hare which they would not have bought, scarce know our nature. The hare in itself would not screen us from the sight of death and calamities; but the chase, which turns away our attention from these, does screen us.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “Three foggy mornings and one rainy day
    Will rot the best birch fence a man can build.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
