Famous quotes containing the words world and/or lays:

    We should often blush for our very best actions, if the world did but see all the motives upon which they were done.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
