Famous quotes containing the words single and/or room:
“The shore is composed of a belt of smooth rounded white stones like paving-stones, excepting one or two short sand beaches, and is so steep that in many places a single leap will carry you into water over your head; and were it not for its remarkable transparency, that would be the last to be seen of its bottom till it rose on the opposite side. Some think it is bottomless.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“And I think in this empty world there was room for me and a
mountain lion.
And I think in the world beyond, how easily we might spare a million
or two of humans
And never miss them.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
