Famous quotes containing the words selected and/or works:

    “The final flat of the hoe’s approval stamp
    Is reserved for the bed of a few selected seed.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “They commonly celebrate those beaches only which have a hotel on them, not those which have a humane house alone. But I wished to see that seashore where man’s works are wrecks; to put up at the true Atlantic House, where the ocean is land-lord as well as sea-lord, and comes ashore without a wharf for the landing; where the crumbling land is the only invalid, or at best is but dry land, and that is all you can say of it.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
