Famous quotes containing the word moods:
“There are moods in which we court suffering, in the hope that here, at least, we shall find reality, sharp peaks and edges of truth. But it turns out to be scene-painting and counterfeit. The only thing grief has taught me, is to know how shallow it is.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The poet is a man who lives at last by watching his moods. An old poet comes at last to watch his moods as narrowly as a cat does a mouse.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Our moods do not believe in each other.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
