Striped Volumes

Famous quotes containing the words striped and/or volumes:

    I shall lie folded like a saint,
    Lapped in a scented linen sheet,
    On a bedstead striped with bright-blue paint,
    Narrow and cold and neat.
    Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)

    And let a scholar all earth’s volumes carry,
    He will be but a walking dictionary:
    A mere articulate clock.
    George Chapman (1559–1634)
