Famous quotes containing the words cork, dry and/or gin:
“I am to be broken. I am to be derided all my life. I am to be cast up and down among these men and women, with their twitching faces, with their lying tongues, like a cork on a rough sea. Like a ribbon of weed I am flung far every time the door opens.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
“We are things of dry hours and the involuntary plan,
Grayed in, and gray. Dream makes a giddy sound, not strong
Like rent, feeding a wife, satisfying a man.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.”
—Julius J. Epstein (19091952)
