Famous quotes containing the words hay and/or flat:
“We found it at last, an a little shed
Where they shut up the lamb at night.
We looked in an seen them huddled thar,
So warm an sleepy an white;
An THAR sot Little Breeches an chirped,
As peart as ever you see,
I wants a chaw of terbacky,
An thats whats the matter of me.”

“You dont want a general houseworker, do you? Or a traveling companion, quiet, refined, speaks fluent French entirely in the present tense? Or an assistant billiard-maker? Or a private librarian? Or a lady car-washer? Because if you do, I should appreciate your giving me a trial at the job. Any minute now, I am going to become one of the Great Unemployed. I am about to leave literature flat on its face. I dont want to review books any more. It cuts in too much on my reading.”
—Dorothy Parker (18931967)
