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)
