Lip Filling

Famous quotes containing the words lip and/or filling:

    And, indeed, is there not something holy about a great kitchen?... The scoured gleam of row upon row of metal vessels dangling from hooks or reposing on their shelves till needed with the air of so many chalices waiting for the celebration of the sacrament of food. And the range like an altar, yes, before which my mother bowed in perpetual homage, a fringe of sweat upon her upper lip and the fire glowing in her cheeks.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    Make me thy Spinning Wheele of use for thee,
    Thy Grace my Distaffe, and my heart thy Spoole.
    Turn thou the wheele: let mine Affections bee
    The flyer filling with thy yarne my soule.
    Edward Taylor (1645–1729)
