Famous quotes containing the words rice and/or dishes:

    ... there has been a very special man in my life for the past year. All I’ll say about him is that he’s kind, warm, mature, someone I can trust—and he’s not a politician.
    —Donna Rice (b. c. 1962)

    Before she has her floor swept
    Or her dishes done.
    Any day you’ll find her
    A-sunning in the sun!
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
