Hole Burning

Famous quotes containing the words hole and/or burning:

    The anger
    that my friends
    planted in my heart
    when they somehow found
    a hole in it
    ran off
    like an illicit lover
    as soon as I saw my man.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    [Panurge] spent everything in a thousand little banquets and joyous feasts open to all comers, particularly jolly companions, young lasses, and delightful wenches, and in clearing his lands, burning the big logs to sell the ashes, taking money in advance, buying dear, selling cheap, and eating his wheat in the blade.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)
