Hay Flat

Famous quotes containing the words hay and/or flat:

    It’s a bad town to bring an appetite to, soldier. We’ve been here since yesterday morning and we’ve been living on boiled hay and razor blades.
    Maxwell Anderson (1888–1959)

    You don’t want a general houseworker, do you? Or a traveling companion, quiet, refined, speaks fluent French entirely in the present tense? Or an assistant billiard-maker? Or a private librarian? Or a lady car-washer? Because if you do, I should appreciate your giving me a trial at the job. Any minute now, I am going to become one of the Great Unemployed. I am about to leave literature flat on its face. I don’t want to review books any more. It cuts in too much on my reading.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
