Single Thread

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or thread:

    Ever fresh the broad creation,
    A divine improvisation,
    From the heart of God proceeds,
    A single will, a million deeds.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Oh sure, everyone goes back to the earth at some point, but life itself is a thread that is never broken, never lost. Do you know why? Because each man makes a knot in the thread during his lifetime: it is the work he has done and that’s what gives life to life in the long stretch of time: the usefulness of man on this earth.
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
