Tea Leaves

Famous quotes containing the words tea and/or leaves:

    It has been well said that tea is suggestive of a thousand wants, from which spring the decencies and luxuries of civilization.
    Agnes Repplier (1858–1950)

    I do not see why, since America and her autumn woods have been discovered, our leaves should not compete with the precious stones in giving names to colors; and, indeed, I believe that in course of time the names of some of our trees and shrubs, as well as flowers, will get into our popular chromatic nomenclature.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
