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)

    There, on the mountain and the sky,
    On all the tragic scene they stare.
    One asks for mournful melodies;
    Accomplished fingers begin to play.
    Their eyes mid many wrinkles, their eyes,
    Their ancient, glittering eyes, are gay.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I prefer “you” in the plural, I want “you,”
    You must come to me, all golden and pale
    Like the dew and the air.
    And then I start getting this feeling of exaltation.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
