Daily Soap

Famous quotes containing the words daily and/or soap:

    If the juggler is tired now, if the broom stands
    In the dust again, if the table starts to drop
    Through the daily dark again, and though the plate
    Lies flat on the table top,
    For him we batter our hands
    Who has won for once over the world’s weight.
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    A ‘spasm band’ is a miscellaneous collection of a soap box, tin cans, pan tops, nails, drumsticks, and little Negro boys. When mixed in the proper proportions this results in the wildest shuffle dancing, accompanied by a bumping rhythm.
    —For the City of New Orleans, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
