Famous quotes containing the words excellent and/or master:
“Nobody is saying that these people do not ultimately cease to be. And
Sometimes their passings are even more painful than ours.
It is just that so often they live till their hair is white.
They make excellent corpses, among the expensive flowers. . . .”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“There are many skillful apprentices, but few master workmen.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
