Sheet

Famous quotes containing the word sheet:

    You take the lake. I look and look at it.
    I see it’s a fair, pretty sheet of water.
    I stand and make myself repeat out loud
    The advantages it has....

    Time that scatters hair upon a head
    Spreads the ice sheet on the shaven lawn;
    Signing an annual permit for the frost....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    There is a continual exchange of ideas between all minds of a generation. Journalists, popular novelists, illustrators, and cartoonists adapt the truths discovered by the powerful intellects for the multitude. It is like a spiritual flood, like a gush that pours into multiple cascades until it forms the great moving sheet of water that stands for the mentality of a period.
    Auguste Rodin (1849–1917)
