Thin Juice

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or juice:

    Think of those barren places where men gather
    To act in the terrible name of rectitude,
    Of acned shame, punk’s pride, muscle or turf,
    The bully’s thin superiority.
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

    Our poets have sung of wine, the product of a foreign plant which commonly they never saw, as if our own plants had no juice in them more than the singers.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
