Famous quotes containing the words floating and/or dry:
“Again we mistook a little rocky islet seen through the drisk, with some taller bare trunks or stumps on it, for the steamer with its smoke-pipes, but as it had not changed its position after half an hour, we were undeceived. So much do the works of man resemble the works of nature. A moose might mistake a steamer for a floating isle, and not be scared till he heard its puffing or its whistle.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Scarlett OHara: Oh, oh, Rhett. For the first time Im finding out what it is to be sorry for something Ive done.
Rhett Butler: Dry your eyes. If you had it all to do over again, youd do no differently. Youre like the thief who isnt the least bit sorry he stole, but hes terribly, terribly sorry hes going to jail.”
—Sidney Howard (18911939)
