Famous quotes containing the word cups:

    Sigh no more, ladies.
    Time is male
    and in his cups drinks to the fair.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    When cups went round at close of day
    Is not that how good stories run?
    The gods were sitting at the board
    In their great house at Slievenamon.
    They sang a drowsy song, or snored,
    For all were full of wine and meat.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    What a devil hast thou to do with the time of the day? Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the
    tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored
    taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous
    to demand the time of the day.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
