Occupy Quotations
My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can. Cary Grant Those who occupy their minds with small matters, generally become incapable of greatness. Francois de La Rochefoucauld The eyes like sentinel occupy the highest place in the body. Marcus Tullius Cicero On vacations: We hit the sunny beaches where we occupy ourselves keeping the sun off our skin, the saltwater off our bodies, and the sand out of our belongings. Erma Bombeck Ever since I could first write I have been doing so. When I was taught how to write and read at school, I made up my mind that this was what I love to do best and this was the world I was going to occupy. Anita Desai |
