    “The best quality tea must have creases like the leathern boot of Tartar horsemen, curl like the dewlap of a mighty bullock, unfold like a mist rising out of a ravine, gleam like a lake touched by a zephyr, and be wet and soft like a fine earth newly swept by rain.”
    —Lu Yu (d. 804)

    “When strawberries go begging, and the sleek
    Blue plums lie open to the blackbird’s beak,
    We shall live well—we shall live very well.”
    —Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)
