Famous quotes containing the words multiple, bowl and/or starts:
“Combining paid employment with marriage and motherhood creates safeguards for emotional well-being. Nothing is certain in life, but generally the chances of happiness are greater if one has multiple areas of interest and involvement. To juggle is to diminish the risk of depression, anxiety, and unhappiness.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
“Fill high the bowl with Samian wine!
Our virgins dance beneath the shade—
I see their glorious black eyes shine;
But gazing on each glowing maid,
My own the burning tear-drop laves,
To think such breasts must suckle slaves.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“For now we take the floor
Quite unremarked-on, and I feel once more
That silent beckoning from you verify
All I remember weaker, but
Something in me starts toppling.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
