Varied

Famous quotes containing the word varied:

“Who has not felt the beauty of a woman’s arm?—the unspeakable suggestions of tenderness that lie in the dimpled elbow, and all the varied gently-lessening curves, down to the delicate wrist, with its tiniest, almost imperceptible nicks in the firm softness.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

“The heart, like the stomach, wants a varied diet.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

“See, Winter comes, to rule the varied year,
Sullen, and sad, with all his rising train;
Vapours, and clouds, and storms. Be these my theme,
These, that exalt the soul to solemn thought,
And heavenly musing. Welcome, kindred glooms!
Congenial horrors, hail!”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
