Week Lax

Famous quotes containing the words week and/or lax:

“It is remarkable how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves. I had not lived there a week before my feet wore a path from my door to the pond-side; and though it is five or six years since I trod it, it is still quite distinct. It is true, I fear, that others may have fallen into it, and so helped to keep it open.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“We want nights
Of vague adventure, lips lax wet and warm,
Bees in the stomach, sweat across the brow. Now.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
