Wet

Famous quotes containing the word wet:

    “I have a vocabulary all my own. I “pass the time” when it is wet and disagreeable. When it is fine I do not wish to pass it; I ruminate it and hold on to it. We should hasten over the bad, and settle upon the good.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “A wet sheet and a flowing sea,
    A wind that follows fast
    And fills the white and rustling sail
    And bends the gallant mast;”
    —Allan Cunningham (1784–1842)

    “I’m getting bored with it,
    I tell the typewriter,
    this constantly walking around
    in wet shoes and then, surprise!
    Somehow DECEASED keeps getting
    stamped in red over the word HOPE.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
