Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or shark:
“Seine and Piave are silver spoons,
But the spoonbowl-metal is thin and worn,”
—Stephen Vincent Benét (1898–1943)
“I have often told you that I am that little fish who swims about under a shark and, I believe, lives indelicately on its offal. Anyway, that is the way I am. Life moves over me in a vast black shadow and I swallow whatever it drops with relish, having learned in a very hard school that one cannot be both a parasite and enjoy self-nourishment without moving in worlds too fantastic for even my disordered imagination to people with meaning.”
—Zelda Fitzgerald (1900–1948)
