Soft Paste Porcelain

Famous quotes containing the words soft and/or paste:

    O sleep! O gentle sleep!
    Nature’s soft nurse, how have I frighted thee,
    That thou no more wilt weigh my eyelids down,
    And steep my senses in forgetfulness?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In a thousand apparently humble ways men busy themselves to make some right take the place of some wrong,—if it is only to make a better paste blacking,—and they are themselves so much the better morally for it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
