Warmer Water

Famous quotes containing the words warmer and/or water:

    Sentimentalists ... adopt whatever merit is in good repute, and almost make it hateful with their praise. The warmer their expressions, the colder we feel.... Cure the drunkard, heal the insane, mollify the homicide, civilize the Pawnee, but what lessons can be devised for the debauchee of sentiment?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    If you keep your feathers well oiled the water of criticism will run off as from a duck’s back.
    Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
