Thomas Work

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or work:

    Under the heavens that know not what years be
    The men, the beasts, the trees, the implements
    Uttered even what they will in times far hence—
    All of us gone out of the reach of change—
    Immortal in a picture of an old grange.
    —Edward Thomas (1878–1917)

    ... in love, barriers cannot be destroyed from the outside by the one to whom the cause despair, no matter what he does; and it is only when he is no longer concerned with them that, suddenly, as a result of work coming from elsewhere, accomplished within the one who did not love him, these barriers, formerly attacked without success, fall futilely.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
