Famous quotes containing the words coarse, salt and/or company:
“The puritanical potentialities of science have never been forecast. If it evolves a body of organized rites, and is established as a religion, hierarchically organized, things more than anything else will be done in the name of decency. The coarse fumes of tobacco and liquors, the consequent tainting of the breath and staining of white fingers and teeth, which is so offensive to many women, will be the first things attended to.”
—Wyndham Lewis (18821957)
“... the darkness,
Inviting to this house
Air from a field, air from a salt grave ...”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“People who abhor solitude may abhor company almost as much.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
