Famous quotes containing the words dining and/or dark:

    “Roast Beef, Medium, is not only a food. It is a philosophy. Seated at Life’s Dining Table, with the menu of Morals before you, your eye wanders a bit over the entrées, the hors d’oeuvres, and the things à la though you know that Roast Beef, Medium, is safe and sane, and sure.”
    —Edna Ferber (1887–1968)

    “butter fat goosegirls, bounced in a gambo bed,
    Their breasts full of honey, under their gander king
    Trounced by his wings in the hissing shippen, long dead
    And gone that barley dark where their clogs danced in the spring....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
