Water Absorption

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or absorption:

“Once it was a boat, quite wooden
and with no business, no salt water under it
and in need of some paint. It was no more
than a group of boards. But you hoisted her, rigged her.
She’s been elected.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“The great social adventure of America is no longer the conquest of the wilderness but the absorption of fifty different peoples.”
