Famous quotes containing the words amphibious and/or company:

    swirling crustacean-
    tailed equine amphibious creatures
    that garnish the axle-tree! What
    a fine thing! What unannoying
    romance!
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    The delicious faces of children, the beauty of school-girls, “the sweet seriousness of sixteen,” the lofty air of well-born, well-bred boys, the passionate histories in the looks and manners of youth and early manhood, and the varied power in all that well-known company that escort us through life,—we know how these forms thrill, paralyze, provoke, inspire, and enlarge us.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
