Famous quotes containing the words high, water and/or content:

    Gifts of one loved me,—
    ‘T was high time they came;
    When he ceased to love me,
    Time they stopped for shame.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Rock of ages, cleft for me,
    Let me hide myself in thee!
    Let the water and the blood,
    From thy riven side which flowed,
    Be of sin the double cure;
    Cleanse me from its guilt and pow’r.
    Augustus Montague Toplady (1740–1778)

    Sir Charles: Aren’t you drinking?
    Princess Dala: I don’t drink.
    Sir Charles: Never?
    Princess Dala: I’m quite content with reality, I have no need for escape.
    Sir Charles: Well, I enjoy reality as much as the next man, it’s just in my case, fortunately, reality includes a good stiff belt every now and then.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
