Famous quotes containing the words liquid and/or stranger:
“What slender Youth bedew’d with liquid odours
Courts thee on Roses in some pleasant Cave,”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)
“I knew very well that this hope was chimerical. I was like a pauper who mingles fewer tears with his dry bread if he tells himself that at any moment a stranger will bequeath to him his fortune. We must all, in order to make reality more tolerable, keep alive in us a few little follies.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
