Thread Work

Famous quotes containing the words thread and/or work:

“A sleeping man holds in a circle around him the thread of the hours, the order of years and of worlds. He consults them instinctively upon awaking and in one second reads in them the point of the earth that he occupies, the time past until his arousal; but their ranks can be mingled or broken.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

“... whoever believes anything esteems that it is a work of charity to persuade another of it.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
