Sweet Cream Butter

Famous quotes containing the words sweet, cream and/or butter:

    If it is the mark of the artist to love art before everything, to renounce everything for its sake, to think all the sweet human things of life well lost if only he may attain something, do some good, great work—then I was never an artist.

    Hank: It ain’t gonna be a bit different than it was in Redding, P.A. And we’re going over just as big.
    Queenie: Oh, Hank. Do you think so?
    Hank: Why it’s cream in the can, baby!

    For a parent, it’s hard to recognize the significance of your work when you’re immersed in the mundane details. Few of us, as we run the bath water or spread the peanut butter on the bread, proclaim proudly, “I’m making my contribution to the future of the planet.” But with the exception of global hunger, few jobs in the world of paychecks and promotions compare in significance to the job of parent.
    Joyce Maynard (20th century)
