Universal Cover

Famous quotes containing the words universal and/or cover:

“It is remarkable what a value is still put upon wood even in this age and in this new country, a value more permanent and universal than that of gold. After all our discoveries and inventions no man will go by a pile of wood. It is as precious to us as it was to our Saxon and Norman ancestors. If they made their bows of it, we make our gun-stocks of it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Nothing can we call our own but death,
And that small model of the barren earth
Which serves as paste and cover to our bones.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
