Famous quotes containing the words world and/or cup:

    We admire a woman for the courage to show herself to the world as she is, and in the end it’s the courage we find attractive.
    New Yorker (April 30, 1990)

    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)
