Famous quotes containing the words solid and/or rivets:
“I love to weigh, to settle, to gravitate toward that which most strongly and rightfully attracts me;Mnot hang by the beam of the scale and try to weigh less,—not suppose a case, but take the case that is; to travel the only path I can, and that on which no power can resist me. It affords me no satisfaction to commence to spring an arch before I have got a solid foundation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... where there is one slave there are always two—he who wears the chain and he who rivets it.”
—Jeanne De Hericourt (1809–1875)
