Famous quotes containing the word thoughts:

    “Break, break, break,
    On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!

    The thoughts that arise in me.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “No man’s thoughts are new, but the style of their expression is the never-failing novelty which cheers and refreshes men. If we were to answer the question, whether the mass of men, as we know them, talk as the standard authors and reviewers write, or rather as this man writes, we should say that he alone begins to write their language at all.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Solicit not thy thoughts with matters hid:/Leave them to God above; him serve and fear.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
