Famous quotes containing the words seed and/or oil:
“I declare
Two lineages electrify the air,
That will like pennons from a mast
Fly over sleep and life and death
Till sun is powerless to decoy
A single seed above the earth:
Lineage of sorrow: lineage of joy....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“It is wise to apply the oil of refined politeness to the mechanism of friendship.”
