Lean Mixture

Famous quotes containing the words lean and/or mixture:

    Let me have men about me that are fat,
    Sleek-headed men and such as sleep a-nights.
    Yon Cassius has a lean and hungry look.
    He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Wasn’t marriage, like life, unstimulating and unprofitable and somewhat empty when too well ordered and protected and guarded. Wasn’t it finer, more splendid, more nourishing, when it was, like life itself, a mixture of the sordid and the magnificent; of mud and stars; of earth and flowers; of love and hate and laughter and tears and ugliness and beauty and hurt?
    Edna Ferber (1887–1968)
