Famous quotes containing the words pebble and/or bed:
“The murmuring surge,
That on th unnumbered idle pebble chafes,
Cannot be heard so high.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“It is comforting when one has a sorrow to lie in the warmth of ones bed and there, abandoning all effort and all resistance, to bury even ones head under the cover, giving ones self up to it completely, moaning like branches in the autumn wind. But there is still a better bed, full of divine odors. It is our sweet, our profound, our impenetrable friendship.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
