Wicked Master

Famous quotes containing the words wicked and/or master:

    There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at
    rest.
    There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the
    oppressor.
    Bible: Hebrew Job (l. III, 17–18)

    My dwelling was small, and I could hardly entertain an echo in it; but it seemed larger for being a single apartment and remote from neighbors. All the attractions of a house were concentrated in one room; it was kitchen, chamber, parlor, and keeping-room; and whatever satisfaction parent or child, master or servant, derive from living in a house, I enjoyed it all.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
