Walking Troubles

Famous quotes containing the words walking and/or troubles:

    The Walrus and the Carpenter
    Were walking close at hand:
    They wept like anything to see
    Such quantities of sand:
    “If this were only cleared away,”
    They said, “it would be grand!”
    “If seven maids with seven mops
    Swept it for half a year,
    Do you suppose,” the Walrus said,
    “That they could get it clear?”
    “I doubt it,” said the Carpenter,
    And shed a bitter tear.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    Most magazines have that look of being predestined to be left which one sees on the faces of the women whose troubles bring them to the Law Courts.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
