Sweet Dish

Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or dish:

    “He loved strange thought
    And knew that sweet extremity of pride
    That’s called platonic love,
    And that to such a pitch of passion wrought
    Nothing could bring him, when his lady died,
    Anodyne for his love.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    This crib His chair of state;
    The beasts are parcel of His pomp,
    The wooden dish His plate.”
