Bottom Stream

Famous quotes containing the words bottom and/or stream:

    There is something in the breast of almost every man, which at bottom takes offense at the attentions of any other man offered to a woman, the hope of whose nuptial love he himself may have discarded. Fain would a man selfishly appropriate all the hearts which have ever in any way confessed themselves his.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Human kindness is like a defective tap, the first gush may be impressive but the stream soon dries up.
    —P.D. (Phyllis Dorothy)
