Famous quotes containing the words rogers and/or cup:
“Mine be a cot beside the hill;
A bee-hives hum shall soothe my ear;
A willowy brook, that turns a mill,
With many a fall shall linger near.”
—Samuel Rogers (17631855)
“I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man: wine is not so noble a liquor; and think of dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of warm coffee, or of an evening with a dish of tea! Ah, how low I fall when I am tempted by them! Even music may be intoxicating. Such apparently slight causes destroyed Greece and Rome, and will destroy England and America.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
