Famous quotes containing the words power and/or core:
“O Lord! What wonderful power you have!
We sowed jute and millet sprouted.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within
They rear their boughs to the October sky.
Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
