White Porcelain Jar

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or jar:

    “Slow, slow, as a fish she came,
    Slow as a fish coming forward,
    Swaying in a long wave;
    Her skirts not touching a leaf,
    Her white arms reaching towards me.”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    “Drink your fill when the jar is first opened, and when it is nearly done, but be sparing when it is half-empty; it’s a poor saving when you come to the dregs.”
    —Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
