Barrel Knot

Famous quotes containing the words barrel and/or knot:

    Peaches grow wild, and pigs can live in clover;
    A barrel of salted herrings lasts a year;
    The spring begins before the winter’s over.
    Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)

    Separation’s fire
    can be borne
    when there’s a knot of hope,
    but Mother,
    when my love leaves home
    and stays in the same village,
    it’s far worse than death.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
