Short Dry

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or dry:

    If true that notion, which but few contest,
    That in the way of wit short things are best,
    Then in good epigrams two virtues meet,
    For ‘tis their glory to be short and sweet.
    —Anonymous. From A Collection of Epigrams (1727)

    Where once the waters of your face
    Spun to my screws, your dry ghost blows,
    The dead turns up its eye....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
