Short Dry

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or dry:

    I have made a short excursion into the new world which the Indian dwells in, or is. He begins where we leave off.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I knew very well that this hope was chimerical. I was like a pauper who mingles fewer tears with his dry bread if he tells himself that at any moment a stranger will bequeath to him his fortune. We must all, in order to make reality more tolerable, keep alive in us a few little follies.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
