Tastes

Famous quotes containing the word tastes:

    We are beginning to wonder whether a servant girl hasn’t the best of it after all. She knows how the salad tastes without the dressing, and she knows how life’s lived before it gets to the parlor door.
    Djuna Barnes (1892–1982)

    To behold the day-break!
    The little light fades the immense and diaphanous shadows,
    The air tastes good to my palate.

    Hefts of the moving world at innocent gambols silently rising,
    freshly exuding,
    Scooting obliquely high and low.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    But it’s hard to farm
    Between the stumps:
    The cows get thin, the milk tastes funny,
    The kids grow up and go to college
    They don’t come back
    the little fir-trees do
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
