Spray Quotes - Page 7

• Apollo has peeped through the shutter,
  And awaken'd the witty and fair;
  The boarding-school belle's in a flutter,
  The twopenny post's in despair;
  The breath of the morning is flinging
  A magic on blossom and spray,
  And cockneys and sparrows are singing
  In chorus on Valentine's day.

  Winthrop Mackworth Praed

• I have been styling my own hair since I was four years old ... and I still don't let anyone else touch it to this day. I cut, color, style, and spray my own hair, on all sets and shoots, that's just the way it goes. I get way too nervous when someone else starts to mess with it.

• Tis not for golden eloquence I pray,
  A godlike tongue to move a stony heart--
  Methinks it were full well to be apart
  In solitary uplands far away,
  Betwixt the blossoms of a rosy spray,
  Dreaming upon the wonderful sweet face
  Of Nature, in a wild and pathless place.

  Frederick Tennyson

• Fair, rich confusion is all the aim of an old-fashioned flower garden, and the greater the confusion, the richer.

• I love walking into a closet and smelling lingering perfume, so I always spray my clothes. And at the end of the bottle, when the atomizer no longer reaches the tiny little dribble that is left, I unscrew the top and pour the remainder onto a t-shirt or dress.

• I like to put perfume on my pulse points, but I also love the way you can sense it - there is an atmosphere that comes from releasing a scent in to the world - it's a primal thing. I spray around me, not just on me, and it lingers in the room after I leave.

• And yet, within her anxiety, secured there like a gemstone, she carries the cool and curious power of occasionally being able to see the world vividly. Clarity bursts upon her a spray of little stars. She understands this, and thinks of it as one of the tricks of consciousness; there is something almost luxurious about it.. The narrative maze opens and permits her to pass through. She may be crowded out of her own life - she knows this for a fact and has always know it - but she possesses, as a compensatory gift, the startling ability to draft alternative versions.
