Bit Slice

Famous quotes containing the words bit and/or slice:

    “Across the lonely beach we flit,
    One little sandpiper and I;
    And fast I gather, bit by bit,
    The scattered driftwood, bleached and dry.
    The wild waves reach their hands for it,
    The wild wind raves, the tide runs high,
    As up and down the beach we flit—
    One little sandpiper and I.”
    —Celia Thaxter (”Laighton”)

    “And silence her six
    And mix
    Her spices and core
    And slice her apples, and find her four.
    Continuing her part
    Of the world’s business.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
