Yeast Species

Famous quotes containing the words yeast and/or species:

    Do you not know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough?
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 5:6.

    There are acacias, a graceful species amusingly devitalized by sentimentality, this kind drooping its leaves with the grace of a young widow bowed in controllable grief, this one obscuring them with a smooth silver as of placid tears. They please, like the minor French novelists of the eighteenth century, by suggesting a universe in which nothing cuts deep.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
