Diet Mountain Dew

Famous quotes containing the words diet, mountain and/or dew:

    Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandated—serious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    Again, he felt a crude ecstasy. He could not have given the reason, but the mountain tormented him, beckoned him, held an answer to something he wanted. It was so pure, so austere.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    In the cowslips peeps I lie,
    Hidden from the buzzing fly,
    While green grass beneath me lies,
    Pearled wi’ dew like fishes’ eyes,
    Here I lye, a clock-a-clay,
    Waiting for the time o’ day.
    John Clare (1793–1864)
