Famous quotes containing the words bedroom and/or classics:
“I want a bedroom near the sky, an astrologer’s cave
Where I can fashion eclogues that are chaste and grave.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“For what are the classics but the noblest thoughts of man? They are the only oracles which are not decayed, and there are such answers to the most modern inquiry in them as Delphi and Dodona never gave. We might as well omit to study Nature because she is old.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
