Famous quotes containing the words nest and/or construction:
““... Or how should love be worth its pains were it not
That when he has fallen asleep within my arms,
Being wearied out, I love in man the child?
What can they know of love that do not know
She builds her nest upon a narrow ledge
Above a windy precipice?””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“The construction of life is at present in the power of facts far more than convictions.”
