Famous quotes containing the words garbage and/or dreams:
“To be an editor, as I was.
Then to lie here close by the river over the place
Where the sewage flows from the village,
And the empty cans and garbage are dumped,
And abortions are hidden.”
—Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
“Either we have no dreams or we have interesting ones.—We need to learn to be awake in the same way:—either not at all or in an interesting way.”
