Powder Bed

Famous quotes containing the words powder and/or bed:

    My little ‘bout-town gal has gone
    ‘Bout town with powder and blue dye
    On her pale lids....
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    If the soul doth think in a sleeping man without being conscious of it, I ask, whether during such thinking it has any pleasure or pain, or be capable of happiness or misery? I am sure the man is not, no more than the bed or earth he lies on. For to be happy or miserable without being conscious of it, seems to me utterly inconsistent and impossible.

    John Locke (1632–1704)
