Famous quotes containing the words louis and/or thomas:

    You can forgive people who do not follow you through a philosophical disquisition; but to find your wife laughing when you had tears in your eyes, or staring when you were in a fit of laughter, would go some way towards a dissolution of the marriage.
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Neither by night’s ancient fear,
    The parting of hat from hair,
    Pursed lips at the receiver,
    Shall I fall to death’s feather.
    By these I would not care to die,
    Half convention and half lie.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
