Sweet Quotes
-
Labor is sweet, for Thou hast toiled,And care is light, for Thou hast cared;Let not our works with self be soiled,Nor in unsimple ways ensnared.Through life's long day and death's dark night,O gentle Jesus! be our light.

A line will take us hours maybe; / Yet if it does not seem a moment's thought, / Our stitching and unstitching has been naught... Better go down upon your marrow-bones / And scrub a kitchen pavement, or break stones... For to articulate sweet sounds together / Is to work harder than all these, and yet / Be thought an idler by the noisy set.
William Butler Yeats

I'm a human being.

Bob Seger

My most memorable meal is every Thanksgiving. I love the food: the turkey and stuffing; the sweet potatoes and rice, which come from my mother's Southern heritage; the mashed potatoes, which come from my wife's Midwestern roots; the Campbell's green-bean casserole; and of course, pumpkin pie.
