Famous quotes containing the words total, body and/or water:
“For, the expectation of gratitude is mean, and is continually punished by the total insensibility of the obliged person. It is a great happiness to get off without injury and heart-burning, from one who has had the ill luck to be served by you. It is a very onerous business, this being served, and the debtor naturally wishes to give you a slap.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“An empty house is like a stray dog or a body from which life has departed.”
—Samuel Butler (18351902)
“The land may vary more;
But wherever the truth may be
The water comes ashore,
And the people look at the sea.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
