Bottle Gourd

Famous quotes containing the words bottle and/or gourd:

    I fasted for some forty days on bread and buttermilk
    For passing round the bottle with girls in rags or silk,
    In country shawl or Paris cloak, had put my wits astray,
    And what’s the good of women for all that they can say
    Is fol de rol de rolly O.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Are you not the oasis where I dream, and the gourd from which I drink in long draughts the wine of memory?
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
