Inhaled Form

Famous quotes containing the words inhaled and/or form:

    Tilting up his nose,
    He inhaled the rancid rosin, burly smells
    Of dampened lumber, emanations blown
    From warehouse doors, the gustiness of ropes,
    Decays of sacks, and all the arrant stinks
    That helped him round his rude æsthetic out.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Now, what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which I bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which I bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir!
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
