Bed

Famous quotes containing the word bed:

“A man was to live in that egg-shell day and night, a mile from the shore.... Think of making your bed thus in the crest of a breaker! To have the waves, like a pack of hungry wolves, eying you always, night and day, and from time to time making a spring at you, almost sure to have you at last.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Come, live with me and be my love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
Of peace and plenty, bed and board,
That chance employment may afford.”
—Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

“Everybody who does not live in a prostitute’s bed and on a diet of cocaine snow is called an ascetic nowadays.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
