Carry Eggs

Famous quotes containing the words carry and/or eggs:

    A single monk carries his own bucket of water; two monks carry their bucket of water together; but when there are three monks, there is no water at all.
    Chinese proverb.

    Nothing is so beautiful as spring—
    When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
    Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
    Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
    The ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
