Famous quotes containing the words scott and/or thomas:

    In a few days I’ll have lived one score and three days in this vale of tears. On I plod—always bored, often drunk, doing no penance for my faults—rather do I become more tolerant of myself from day to day, hardening my crystal heart with blasphemous humor and shunning only toothpicks, pathos, and poverty as being the three unforgivable things in life.
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    No one left and no one came
    On the bare platform. What I saw
    Was Adlestrop—only the name—

    And willows, willow-herb, and grass,
    —Edward Thomas (1878–1917)
