Famous quotes containing the words domestic, hot and/or water:
“I am not naturally ... A bag of wind; yet ... I mean deliberately and decidedly to cut in future all my old ideas on this head. I dont think modesty pays. It is a good quality in a family, it is a domestic virtue, it makes a home happy after you have got a home, but it is not potent in getting homes. It is not a money-maker, neither is it lucky in gaining a reputation. I am of the impression that gaseous bodies do better.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
“Too often when you thought youd be showered with confetti
What they flung at you was a plate of hot spaghetti
Youve put your fancy clothes and flashy gems in hock
Yet you pause before your fathers door afraid to knock”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“It is with artworks as it is with wine: it is much better when we do not need either one, when we stick with water, and when out of our own inner fire, the inner sweetness of our own soul, we turn the water over and over again into wine ourselves.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
