Famous quotes containing the words world and/or cup:
“I want to love and be loved.... I don’t want a world without love or grief or beauty. I’d rather die.”
—Daniel Mainwaring (1902–1977)
“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)
