Common Table Salt

Famous quotes containing the words common, table and/or salt:

    The country needs and, unless I mistake its temper, the country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something. The millions who are in want will not stand idly by silently forever while the things to satisfy their needs are within easy reach.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    When he was at the table with them, he took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them. Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized him; and he vanished from their sight.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 24:30,31.

    The Emmaus story.

    At sea a fellow comes out. Salt water is like wine, in that respect.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
