Thin Juice

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or juice:

    Romeo. Peace, peace, Mercutio, peace!
    Thou talk’st of nothing.
    Mercutio. True, I talk of dreams,
    Which are the children of an idle brain,
    Begot of nothing but vain fantasy,
    Which is as thin of substance as the air,
    And more inconstant than the wind.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Our poets have sung of wine, the product of a foreign plant which commonly they never saw, as if our own plants had no juice in them more than the singers.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
