Thread Count

Famous quotes containing the words thread and/or count:

    There’s something like a line of gold thread running through a man’s words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself. It’s another thing, though, to hold up that cloth for inspection.
    John Gregory Brown (20th century)

    I came as census-taker to the waste
    To count the people in it and found none,
    None in the hundred miles, none in the house....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
