Famous quotes containing the word works:
“For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast

Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands;”

—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“We thus worked our way up this river, gradually adjusting our thoughts to novelties, beholding from its placid bosom a new nature and new works of men, and, as it were with increasing confidence, finding nature still habitable, genial, and propitious to us; not following any beaten path, but the windings of the river, as ever the nearest way for us. Fortunately, we had no business in this country.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
