Famous quotes containing the words home and/or ground:
“Chinese were born ... with an accumulated wisdom, a natural sophistication, an intelligent naivete, and unless they were transplanted too young, these qualities ripened in them.... If ever I am homesick for China, now that I am home in my own country, it is when I discover here no philosophy. Our people have opinions and creeds and prejudices and ideas but as yet no philosophy.”
—Pearl S. Buck (18921973)
“Keep out of Chancery.... Its being ground to bits in a slow mill; its being roasted at a slow fire; its being stung to death by single bees; its being drowned by drops; its going mad by grains.”
—Charles Dickens (18121870)
