Bite Marks

Famous quotes containing the words bite and/or marks:

    But my greatest delight is to take a good bite
    At a calf that is plump and delicious;
    And if I indulge in a bite at a bulge,
    Let’s hope you won’t think me too vicious.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    It has come to be practically a sort of rule in literature, that a man, having once shown himself capable of original writing, is entitled thenceforth to steal from the writings of others at discretion. Thought is the property of him who can entertain it; and of him who can adequately place it. A certain awkwardness marks the use of borrowed thoughts; but, as soon as we have learned what to do with them, they become our own.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
