Famous quotes containing the word nervous:

    He was the finest of our happy men;
    He had all joys, he never thought of death;
    He fiddled sometimes with his mind, and then
    Shook off the tremor like a nervous wren....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    I can’t accept “our nervous age,” since mankind has been nervous during every age. Whoever fears nervousness should turn into a sturgeon or smelt; if a sturgeon makes a stupid mistake, it can only be one: to end up on a hook, and then in a pan in a pastry shell.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    Tea, though ridiculed by those who are naturally coarse in their nervous sensibilities ... will always be the favourite beverage of the intellectual.
    Thomas De Quincey (1785–1859)
