Famous quotes containing the words world and/or cup:

    “The only business of the head in the world is to bow a ceaseless obeisance to the heart.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man: wine is not so noble a liquor; and think of dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of warm coffee, or of an evening with a dish of tea! Ah, how low I fall when I am tempted by them! Even music may be intoxicating. Such apparently slight causes destroyed Greece and Rome, and will destroy England and America.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
