Covered Work

Famous quotes containing the words covered and/or work:

“When my face turned toward his,
I averted it
and looked at my feet.
When my ears clamored
to hear his talk,
I stopped them.
When my cheeks broke out
in sweat and goosebumps,
I covered them with my hands.
But Friends,
when the seams of my bodice
burst in a hundred places,
what could I do?”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

“Men were not intended to work with the accuracy of tools, to be precise and perfect in all their actions.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
