Famous quotes containing the words needle and/or thread:
“I would build my house of crystal,
With a solitary friend,
Where the cold cracks like a pistol
And the needle stands on end.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Oh sure, everyone goes back to the earth at some point, but life itself is a thread that is never broken, never lost. Do you know why? Because each man makes a knot in the thread during his lifetime: it is the work he has done and that’s what gives life to life in the long stretch of time: the usefulness of man on this earth.”
—Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
