Gush

Famous quotes containing the word gush:

    There is a continual exchange of ideas between all minds of a generation. Journalists, popular novelists, illustrators, and cartoonists adapt the truths discovered by the powerful intellects for the multitude. It is like a spiritual flood, like a gush that pours into multiple cascades until it forms the great moving sheet of water that stands for the mentality of a period.
    Auguste Rodin (1849–1917)

    Human kindness is like a defective tap, the first gush may be impressive but the stream soon dries up.
    —P.D. (Phyllis Dorothy)
