Famous quotes containing the word search:

    The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    We spent them not in toys, in lusts, or wine,
    But search of deep Philosophy,
    Wit, Eloquence, and Poetry,
    Arts which I loved, for they, my Friend, were thine.
    Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)

    His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
