Liquid Stranger

Famous quotes containing the words liquid and/or stranger:

    What slender Youth bedew’d with liquid odours
    Courts thee on Roses in some pleasant Cave,
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)

    Figure him there, with his scrofulous diseases, with his great greedy heart, and unspeakable chaos of thoughts; stalking mournful as a stranger in this Earth; eagerly devouring what spiritual thing he could come at: school-languages and other merely grammatical stuff, if there were nothing better! The largest soul that was in all England.
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
