Sweet Dish

Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or dish:

    “I have no doubt that they lived pretty much the same sort of life in the Homeric age, for men have always thought more of eating than of fighting; then, as now, their minds ran chiefly on the “hot bread and sweet cakes;” and the fur and lumber trade is an old story to Asia and Europe.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Hey, diddle, diddle,
    The cat and the fiddle,
    The cow jumped over the moon;
    The little dog laughed
    To see such sport,
    And the dish ran away with the spoon.”
    —Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. Hey, diddle, diddle (l. 1–6)
