Glass Milk Bottles

Famous quotes containing the words glass, milk and/or bottles:

    “Thou didst create the night, but I made the lamp.
    Thou didst create clay, but I made the cup.
    Thou didst create the deserts, mountains and forests,
    I produced the orchards, gardens and groves.
    It is I who made the glass out of stone,
    And it is I who turn a poison into an antidote.”
    —Muhammad, Sir Iqbal (1873–1938)

    “this is the night, and this the happy time
    When the tinned milk of human kindness is
    Upheld and holed by radio-appeal.”
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    “I was a closet pacifier advocate. So were most of my friends. Unknown to our mothers, we owned thirty or forty of those little suckers that were placed strategically around the house so a cry could be silenced in less than thirty seconds. Even though bottles were boiled, rooms disinfected, and germs fought one on one, no one seemed to care where the pacifier had been.”
    —Erma Bombeck (20th century)
