Famous quotes containing the words cotton, mill and/or design:

    “It is remarkable with what pure satisfaction the traveler in these woods will reach his camping-ground on the eve of a tempestuous night like this, as if he had got to his inn, and, rolling himself in his blanket, stretch himself on his six-feet-by-two bed of dripping fir twigs, with a thin sheet of cotton for roof, snug as a meadow-mouse in its nest.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The miller believes that all the wheat grows so that his mill keeps running.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “We find that Good and Evil happen alike to all Men on this Side of the Grave; and as the principle Design of Tragedy is to raise Commiseration and Terror in the Minds of the Audience, we shall defeat this great End, if we always make Virtue and Innocence happy and successful.”
    —Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
