Water Tables

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or tables:

    “Eternal Venice sinking by degrees
    Into the very water that she lights;”
    —Edgar Bowers (b. 1924)

    “Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs,
    Rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys,
    Advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm,
    Retreating to the corner of arm and knee,
    Eager to be reassured, taking pleasure
    In the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree....”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
