Famous quotes containing the word prosperous:
“The prosperous and beautiful
To me seem not to wear
The yoke of conscience masterful,
Which galls me everywhere.”

““... You can hear the small buzz saws whine, the big saw
Caterwaul to the hills around the village
As they both bite the wood. It’s all our music.
One ought as a good villager to like it.
No doubt it has a sort of prosperous sound,
And it’s our life.”
“Yes, when it’s not our death.””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“What I always hated and detested and cursed above all things was this contentment, this healthiness and comfort, this carefully preserved optimism of the middle classes, this fat and prosperous brood of mediocrity.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
