Famous quotes containing the words sunshine and/or cottage:
“There would be no sunshine in society if the born flatterers, I mean the so-called amiable people, did not bring it in with them.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It might be seen by what tenure men held the earth. The smallest stream is mediterranean sea, a smaller ocean creek within the land, where men may steer by their farm bounds and cottage lights. For my own part, but for the geographers, I should hardly have known how large a portion of our globe is water, my life has chiefly passed within so deep a cove. Yet I have sometimes ventured as far as to the mouth of my Snug Harbor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
