Pursued

Famous quotes containing the word pursued:

“But labor of the hands, even when pursued to the verge of drudgery, is perhaps never the worst form of idleness. It has a constant and imperishable moral, and to the scholar it yields a classic result.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I pursued a maiden and clasped a reed.
Gods and men, we are all deluded thus!”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“As I pursued my bodily functions, wanting
Neither fire nor water,
Vibrating to the distant pinch
And turning out the way I am, turning out to greet you.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
