Famous quotes containing the words bathing and/or babies:
“Beauty sat bathing by a spring,
Where fairest shades did hide her;
The winds blew calm, the birds did sing,
The cool streams ran beside her.

But better memory said Fie;
So vain desire was chidden—”
—Anthony Munday (1553–1633)
“War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebrums and smaller adrenal glands.”
