Famous quotes containing the words dry and/or pile:
“Waters above! Eternal springs!
The dew that silvers the Doves wings!
O welcome, welcome to the sad:
Give dry dust drink, drink that makes glad!
Many fair evnings, many flowrs
Sweetened with rich and gentle showers,
Have I enjoyed,”
—Henry Vaughan (16221695)
“Wealth is an inborn attitude of mind, like poverty. The pauper who has made his pile may flaunt his spoils, but cannot wear them plausibly.”
