Famous quotes containing the words corn, crab and/or soup:

    A higher class, in the estimation and love of this city- building, market-going race of mankind, are the poets, who, from the intellectual kingdom, feed the thought and imagination with ideas and pictures which raise men out of the world of corn and money, and console them for the short-comings of the day, and the meanness of labor and traffic.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I love no roast but a nut-brown toast, and a crab laid in the fire;
    A little bread shall do me stead! much bread I do not desire;
    William Stevenson (1530?–1575)

    Truth is the silliest thing under the sun. Try to get a living by the Truth—and go to the Soup Societies. Heavens! Let any clergyman try to preach the Truth from its very stronghold, the pulpit, and they would ride him out of his church on his own pulpit bannister.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
