Tasted

Famous quotes containing the word tasted:

    If any mention was made of homicide, madness, adultery, and intolerable tortures, we would let the church-bells ring louder, the church-organ swell its peal and drown the hideous sound. The sugar they raised was excellent: nobody tasted blood in it.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Only those who have tasted the dregs of bitterness will stand out among others.
    Chinese proverb.

    Some say the world will end in fire,
    Some say in ice.
    From what I’ve tasted of desire
    I hold with those who favor fire.
    But if it had to perish twice,
    I think I know enough of hate
    To say that for destruction ice
    Is also great
    And would suffice.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
