Thread Work

Famous quotes containing the words thread and/or work:

    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)

    The better a work is, the more it attracts criticism; it is like the fleas who rush to jump on white linens.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
