Famous quotes containing the words hot and/or deserts:
“Sir Toby Belch. Dost thou think because thou art virtuous there shall be no more cakes and ale?
Feste. Yes, by Saint Anne, and ginger shall be hot i’the mouth, too.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“No Raven’s wing can stretch the flight so far
As the torn bandrols of Napoleon’s war.
Choose then your climate, fix your best abode,
He’ll make you deserts and he’ll bring you blood.
How could you fear a dearth? have not mankind,
Tho slain by millions, millions left behind?
Has not conscription still the power to weild
Her annual faulchion o’er the human field?
A faithful harvester!”
—Joel Barlow (1754–1812)
