Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or lovell:

    It hurts the spirit, somehow, to read the word environments, when the plural means that there are so many alternatives there to be sorted through, as in a market, and voted on.
    —Lewis Thomas (b. 1913)

    Freedom is hunting, feeding, danger;
    that, that is freedom—that it is which makes
    the veins to swell, the breast to heave and glow
    Aye, that is freedom,—that is pleasure—life!
    —Marie Lovell (1803–1877)
