Famous quotes containing the words common and/or pattern:
“The last Night that She lived
It was a Common Night
Except the Dying—this to Us
Made Nature different”

“It was her stern necessity: all things
Are of one pattern made; bird, beast, and flower,
Deceive us, seeming to be many things,
And are but one. Beheld far off, they differ
As God and devil; bring them to the mind,
They dull its edge with their monotony.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
