Famous quotes containing the word works:

    “His works are not to be studied, but read with a swift satisfaction. Their flavor and gust is like what poets tell of the froth of wine, which can only be tasted once and hastily.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “It is the art of mankind to polish the world, and every one who works is scrubbing in some part.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I meet him at every turn. He is more alive than ever he was. He has earned immortality. He is not confined to North Elba nor to Kansas. He is no longer working in secret. He works in public, and in the clearest light that shines on this land.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
