Leaning Water Tower

Famous quotes containing the words leaning, water and/or tower:

    Whether in the bringing of the flowers or the food
    She offers plenty, and is part of plenty,
    And whether I see her stooping, or leaning with the flowers,
    What she does is ages old, and she is not simply,
    No, but lovely in that way.
    Bernard Spencer (1909–1963)

    He said he couldn’t make the boy believe
    He could find water with a hazel prong—
    Which showed how much good school had ever done him.

    If God made me a princess, why didn’t he take a little more time and make my hair so it wouldn’t snarl?
