Famous quotes containing the words oliver and/or reed:
“My grandmother stood among her kettles and ladles.
Smiling, in faulty grammar,
She praised my fortune and urged my lofty career.
So to please her I studied—but I will remember always
How she poured confusion out, how she cooled and labeled
All the wild sauces of the brimming year.”
—Mary Oliver (b. 1935)
“I do not live in the world of sobriety.”
—Oliver Reed (b. 1938)
