Fault Circuit

Famous quotes containing the words fault and/or circuit:

“This is a fault common to all singers, that among their friends they will never sing when they are asked; unasked, they will never desist.”

“Within the circuit of this plodding life
There enter moments of an azure hue,
Untarnished fair as is the violet
Or anemone, when the spring strews them
By some meandering rivulet, which make
The best philosophy untrue that aims
But to console man for his grievances.
I have remembered when the winter came,”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
