Swell Window

Famous quotes containing the words swell and/or window:

“The swan’s down feather,
That stands upon the swell at the full of tide,
And neither way inclines.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“If a man was tossed out of a window when an infant, and so made a cripple for life, or scared out of his wits by the Indians, it is regretted chiefly because he was thus incapacitated for—business! I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself, than this incessant business.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
