Wet

Famous quotes containing the word wet:

    The property of rain is to wet and fire to burn.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)
