Famous quotes containing the words thomas hood, works, thomas and/or hood:

    With fingers weary and worn,
    With eyelids heavy and red,
    A woman sat, in unwomanly rags,
    Plying her needle and thread—
    Stitch! stitch! stitch!
    In poverty, hunger and dirt
    And still with a voice of dolorous pitch
    She sang the “Song of the Shirt.”
    Thomas Hood (1799–1845)

    It is the art of mankind to polish the world, and every one who works is scrubbing in some part.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If in the world there be more woe
    Than I have in my heart,
    Whereso it is, it doth come fro,
    And in my breast there doth it grow,
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    We thought her dying when she slept,
    And sleeping when she died.
    —Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
