Oil

Famous quotes containing the word oil:

    To make a good salad is to be a brilliant diplomatist—the problem is entirely the same in both cases. To know exactly how much oil one must put with one’s vinegar.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    I bade, because the wick and oil are spent
    And frozen are the channels of the blood....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Eat what you can get.
    Where’s the salt
    in this dump of a village?
    And, Lucky Man,
    what’s the use
    of a salty thing
    if there’s no oil in it?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
