Solid Waste

Famous quotes containing the words solid and/or waste:

    “Rude poets of the tavern hearth,
    squandering your unquoted mirth,
    which keeps the ground, and never soars,
    while jake retorts, and reuben roars;
    tough and screaming, as birch-bark,
    goes like bullet to its mark;
    while the solid curse and jeer
    never balk the waiting ear.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Never waste jealousy on a real man: it is the imaginary man that supplants us all in the long run.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
