Striped Ties

Famous quotes containing the words striped and/or ties:

    I shall lie folded like a saint,
    Lapped in a scented linen sheet,
    On a bedstead striped with bright-blue paint,
    Narrow and cold and neat.
    Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)

    But, though light-headed man forget,
    Remembering Matter pays her debt:
    Still, through her motes and masses, draw
    Electric thrills and ties of Law,
    Which bind the strengths of Nature wild
    To the conscience of the child.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
