Dish

Famous quotes containing the word dish:

    “Is it enough
    That the dish of milk is set out at night,
    That we think of him sometimes,
    Sometimes and always, with mixed feelings?”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “You make a toast for tomorrow
    and smash the cup,
    letting your false women lap the dish I had to fatten up.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “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 (1817–1862)
