Famous quotes containing the words melted and/or butter:
“They have melted into the light
and I am desolate;
they have melted;
each from his plinth,
each one departs....”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Strange goings on! Jones did it slowly, deliberately, in the bathroom, with a knife, at midnight. What he did was butter a piece of toast. We are too familiar with the language of action to notice at first an anomaly: the ‘it’ of ‘Jones did it slowly, deliberately,...’ seems to refer to some entity, presumably an action, that is then characterized in a number of ways.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
