Piped Water Supply

Famous quotes containing the words piped, water and/or supply:

    all afternoon
    Their witless offspring flock like piped rats to its siren
    Crescendo, and agape on the crumbling ridge
    Stand in a row and learn.
    William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)

    Camels are snobbish
    and sheep, unintelligent; water buffaloes, neurasthenic—
    even murderous.
    Reindeer seem over-serious.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Dear to us are those who love us ... but dearer are those who reject us as unworthy, for they add another life; they build a heaven before us whereof we had not dreamed, and thereby supply to us new powers out of the recesses of the spirit, and urge us to new and unattempted performances.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
