Underground State

Famous quotes containing the words underground and/or state:

    Or as, when an underground train, in the tube, stops too long between stations
    And the conversation rises and slowly fades into silence
    And you see behind every face the mental emptiness deepen
    Leaving only the growing terror of nothing to think about....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    There is one consolation in being sick; and that is the possibility that you may recover to a better state than you were ever in before.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
