Prose Travel Work

Famous quotes containing the words prose, travel and/or work:

    Money, which represents the prose of life, and which is hardly spoken of in parlors without an apology, is, in its effects and laws, as beautiful as roses.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
    Done with indoor complaints, libraries, querulous criticisms,
    Strong and content I travel the open road.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    when I work I am pure as an angel
    tiger and clear is my eye and hot
    my brain and silent all the whining
    grunting piglets of the appetites.
    Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
