Famous quotes containing the words milk and/or snakes:
“In marble halls as white as milk,
Lined with a skin as soft as silk,
Within a fountain crystal-clear,
A golden apple doth appear.
No doors there are to this stronghold,
Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.”

by snakes that kept the carrots clean,
she butchered snakes and carrots with a hoe.”
