Rigid Foam

Famous quotes containing the words rigid and/or foam:

    It’s fairly obvious that American education is a cultural flop. Americans are not a well-educated people culturally, and their vocational education often has to be learned all over again after they leave school and college. On the other hand, they have open quick minds and if their education has little sharp positive value, it has not the stultifying effects of a more rigid training.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “To dine!” she shrieked in dragon-wrath.
    “To swallow wines all foam and froth!
    To simper at a table-cloth!”
    Say, can thy noble spirit stoop
    To join the gormandising troop
    Who find solace in the soup?
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
