Famous quotes containing the words stressed, water and/or supplies:
“I am a dreamer of words, of written words. I think I am reading; a word stops me. I leave the page. The syllables of the word begin to move around. Stressed accents begin to invert.

—Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)
“of you i
sing: land of Abraham Lincoln and Lydia E. Pinkham,
land above all of Just Add Hot Water And Serve—
from every B. V. D.
let freedom ring”
—E.E. (Edward Estlin)
“Europe’s the mayonnaise, but America supplies the good old lobster.”
