Famous quotes containing the words comfort and/or inn:
“We try to go back. You know Ill probably die just a few miles from where I drew my first breath. That would have seemed like a horrible prospect to me, back when I was young and ambitious and gonna set the world on fire. But theres comfort in knowing youre gonna go full circle, end up where you started out. Ive said before that I want to live my last days where folks know when youre sick and care when you die.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (19081973)
“The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.”
—Gaston Bachelard (18841962)
