Beaten Rice Mixed

Famous quotes containing the words beaten, rice and/or mixed:

    You ask what I have found and far and wide I go,
    Nothing but Cromwell’s house and Cromwell’s murderous crew,
    The lovers and the dancers are beaten into the clay,
    And the tall men and the swordsmen and the horsemen where are they?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    ... there has been a very special man in my life for the past year. All I’ll say about him is that he’s kind, warm, mature, someone I can trust—and he’s not a politician.
    —Donna Rice (b. c. 1962)

    The middlebrow is the man, or woman, of middlebred intelligence who ambles and saunters now on this side of the hedge, now on that, in pursuit of no single object, neither art itself nor life itself, but both mixed indistinguishably, and rather nastily, with money, fame, power, or prestige.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
