What A Lovely Tea Party

Famous quotes containing the words lovely, tea and/or party:

    “But gathering as we stray, a sense
    Of Life, so lovely and intense,
    It lingers when we wander hence,

    That those who follow feel behind
    Their backs, when all before is blind,
    Our joy, a rampart to the mind.”
    —John Masefield (1878–1967)

    “My tea is nearly ready and the sun has left the sky;
    It’s time to take the window to see Leerie going by;
    For every night at tea-time and before you take your seat,
    With lantern and with ladder he comes posting up the street.”
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    “Growing older, I have lost the need to be political, which means, in this country, the need to be left. I am driven into grudging toleration of the Conservative Party because it is the party of non-politics, of resistance to politics.”
    —Kingsley Amis (1922–1995)
