Famous quotes containing the word trouble:
“One has but to observe a community of beavers at work in a stream to understand the loss in his sagacity, balance, co-operation, competence, and purpose which Man has suffered since he rose up on his hind legs.... He began to chatter and he developed Reason, Thought, and Imagination, qualities which would get the smartest group of rabbits or orioles in the world into inextricable trouble overnight.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“the trouble lies in pointing
At any stars. For one’s own finger aims
Always elsewhere: the man beside one seems
Never to get the point. “No! The bright star
Just above my fingertip.””
—John Hollander (b. 1929)
“So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today’s trouble is enough for today.”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 6:34.
