Open Cup

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or cup:

“The use of symbols has a certain power of emancipation and exhilaration for all men. We seem to be touched by a wand, which makes us dance and run about happily, like children. We are like persons who come out of a cave or cellar into the open air. This is the effect on us of tropes, fables, oracles, and all poetic forms. Poets are thus liberating gods.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“I know it does make people happy, but to me it is just like having a cup of tea.”
—Cynthia Paine (b. 1934)
