Single Thread

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or thread:

    My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical,
    Shakes so my single state of man,
    That function is smothered in surmise,
    And nothing is but what is not.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    There’s something like a line of gold thread running through a man’s words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself. It’s another thing, though, to hold up that cloth for inspection.
    John Gregory Brown (20th century)
