Famous quotes containing the words thought of, thought, thomas and/or aquinas:

    The thought of our past years in me doth breed
    Perpetual benediction: not indeed
    For that which is most worthy to be blest—
    Delight and liberty, the simple creed
    Of Childhood, whether busy or at rest,
    With new-fledged hope still fluttering in his breast:—
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    Ancient woods of my blood, dash down to the nut of the seas
    If I take to burn or return this world which is each man’s work.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
