Hot Morning Mess

Famous quotes containing the words hot, morning and/or mess:

“Good-night to the Season!—the dances,
The fillings of hot little rooms,
The glancings of rapturous glances,
The fancyings of fancy costumes;
The pleasures which Fashion makes duties,
The praisings of fiddles and flutes,
The luxury of looking at beauties,
The tedium of talking to mutes;”
—Winthrop Mackworth Praed (1802–1839)

“Oh lovely lady, morning or evening or afternoon.
Oh lovely lady, eating with or without a spoon.
Oh most lovely lady, whether dressed or undressed or partly.
Oh most lovely lady, getting up or going to bed or sitting only.”
—Robert Creeley (b. 1926)

“Scholars are wont to sell their birthright for a mess of learning.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
