Famous quotes containing the words pad and/or designed:
“I have known the inexorable sadness of pencils,
Neat in their boxes, dolor of pad and paper-weight,
All the misery of manilla folders and mucilage,
Desolation in immaculate public places,”

“As I walked on the glacis I heard the sound of a bagpipe from the soldiers dwellings in the rock, and was further soothed and affected by the sight of a soldiers cat walking up a cleated plank in a high loophole designed for mus-catry, as serene as Wisdom herself, and with a gracefully waving motion of her tail, as if her ways were ways of pleasantness and all her paths were peace.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
