Perfect

Famous quotes containing the word perfect:

    Among those few, out of the sun,
    The woodspurge flowered, three cups in one.

    From perfect grief there need not be
    Wisdom or even memory:
    One thing then learnt remains to me,—
    The woodspurge has a cup of three.
    Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)

    A single thankful thought towards heaven is the most perfect of all prayers.
    Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729–1881)

    I remember a very important lesson that my father gave me when I was twelve or thirteen. He said, “You know, today I welded a perfect seam and I signed my name to it.” And I said, “But, Daddy, no one’s going to see it!” And he said, “Yeah, but I know it’s there.” So when I was working in kitchens, I did good work.
    Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
