Thomas Organ

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or organ:

    But wishes breed not, neither
    Can we fend off rock arrival,
    Lie watching yellow until the golden weather
    Breaks, O my heart’s blood, like a heart and hill.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    What we commonly call man, the eating, drinking, planting, counting man, does not, as we know him, represent himself, but misrepresents himself. Him we do not respect, but the soul, whose organ he is, would he let it appear through his action, would make our knees bend.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
