Famous quotes containing the words women, world and/or cup:
“All women are wonders because they reduce all men to the obvious.”
—Geoffrey Homes (1902–1977)
“The world is all outside: it has no inside.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“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)
