Scotch Eggs

Famous quotes containing the words scotch and/or eggs:

    In Rangoon the heat of noon
    Is just what the natives shun.
    They put their Scotch or rye down
    And lie down.
    Noël Coward (1899–1973)

    Nothing is so beautiful as spring—
    When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
    Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
    Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
    The ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
