Base Powders

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or powders:

“No love is entirely without worth, even when the frivolous calls to the frivolous and the base to the base.”

“Ask me no more where Jove bestows,
When June is past, the fading rose;
For in your beauty’s orient deep
These flowers, as in their causes, sleep.

Ask me no more whither do stray
The golden atoms of the day;
For in pure love heaven did prepare
Those powders to enrich your hair.”
—Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
