Fibres Quotes
-
Great blunders are often made, like large ropes, of a multitude of fibres.
Victor Hugo -
Where the shadow of the bridge fell I could see down for a long way, but not as far as the bottom. When you leave a leaf in water a long time after awhile the tissue will be gone and the delicate fibres waving slow as the motion of sleep. They don't touch one another, no matter how knotted up they once were, no matter how close they lay once to the bones.
William Faulkner

Asa Baber -
Soul of fibre and heart of oak.
Miguel de Cervantes
