Famous quotes containing the words current and/or plates:

    The first opinion that occurs to us when we are suddenly asked about something is usually not our own but only the current one pertaining to our class, position, or parentage; our own opinions seldom swim on the surface.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “... What are you seeing out the window, lady?”
    “What I’ll be seeing more of in the years
    To come as here I stand and go the round
    Of many plates with towels many times.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
