Famous quotes containing the words world and/or bowl:
“I have none of the tenderer-than-thou
Collectivistic regimenting love
With which the modern world is being swept.”

Our virgins dance beneath the shade—
I see their glorious black eyes shine;
But gazing on each glowing maid,
My own the burning tear-drop laves,
To think such breasts must suckle slaves.”
