Famous quotes containing the words philosophers and/or worry:
“The profoundest thoughts of the philosophers have something tricklike about them. A lot disappears in order for something to suddenly appear in the palm of the hand.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
“As I sit looking out of a window of the building
I wish I did not have to write the instructional manual on the uses
of a new metal.
I look down into the street and see people, each walking with an
inner peace,
And envy them—they are so far away from me!
Not one of them has to worry about getting out this manual on
schedule”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
