Weight Shift

Famous quotes containing the words weight and/or shift:

    The weight of its body
    cleverly suspended
    by its own wings,
    the bee
    sips at the bud
    of the night-blooming jasmine,
    opening it,
    greedy for its juice.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    I will use the world and sift it,
    To a thousand humors shift it,
    As you spin a cherry.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
