Thoughts

Famous quotes containing the word thoughts:

“After I went to bed I had a curious fancy as to dreams. In sleep the doors of the mind are shut, and thoughts come jumping in at the windows. They tumble headlong, and therefore are so disorderly and strange. Sometimes they are stout and light on their feet, and then they are rational dreams.”
—James Boswell (1740–1795)

“There are thoughts which are prayers. There are moments when, whatever the posture of the body, the soul is on its knees.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

“Merciful powers,
Restrain in me the cursed thoughts that nature
Gives way to in repose!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
