Fragrant Materials

Famous quotes containing the words fragrant and/or materials:

“Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs,
Rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys,
Advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm,
Retreating to the corner of arm and knee,
Eager to be reassured, taking pleasure
In the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree....”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“Though the hen should sit all day, she could lay only one egg, and, besides, would not have picked up materials for another.”
