Famous quotes containing the words path and/or integral:

    Old and fat, I waddle, gasping, up the beckoning path of lust.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    An island always pleases my imagination, even the smallest, as a small continent and integral portion of the globe. I have a fancy for building my hut on one. Even a bare, grassy isle, which I can see entirely over at a glance, has some undefined and mysterious charm for me.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
