Famous quotes containing the word salted:
“Rats!
They fought the dogs and killed the cats,
And bit the babies in the cradles,
And ate the cheeses out of the vats,
And licked the soup from the cooks own ladles,
Split open the kegs of salted sprats,
Made nests inside mens Sunday hats,
And even spoiled the womens chats
By drowning their speaking
With shrieking and squeaking
In fifty different sharps and flats.”
—Robert Browning (18121889)
“And salted was my food, and my repose,
Salted and sobered, too, by the birds voice
Speaking for all who lay under the stars,
Soldiers and poor, unable to rejoice.”
—Edward Thomas (18781917)
