Silk Quotes

Honor? Maybe they’re letting him sleep on silk, but a prisoner is still a prisoner Picture Quote #1

Sugar is gone; silk has gone; iron is threatened; wool is threatened; cotton will go! How long are you going to stand it? At the present moment these industries... Are like sheep in a field Picture Quote #1

I can see clothes of silk, if materials that do not hide the body, nor even one’s decency, can be called clothes... Wretched flocks of maids labor so that the adulteress may be visible through her thin dress, so that her husband has no more acquaintance than any outsider or foreigner with his wife’s body Picture Quote #1

He froze, and for one moment, we stood locked in time. I could feel the silk of his shirt against my skin and the warmth of his body. The lingering scent of the overpriced cologne he wore floated around me. No smoke for a change. I’d always told him the cologne couldn’t be worth what he spent, but suddenly, I reconsidered. It was amazing Picture Quote #1

The earthly power sucks shadowed milk from sleepy tears undone, from nippled skin as smooth as silk the bugles blown as one Picture Quote #1

My perspective is hard because I look at wardrobe from very much a guy’s perspective. You look at my closet and I have pairs of black jeans and five button-downs, but one’s silk, one’s cotton. They all are slightly different, so that’s my perspective Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I’m a good ol’ boy. Honestly, the last thing I am is a redneck. I like silk sheets, fancy cars, beautiful women, good whiskey Picture Quote #1

I haven’t come to you only to take , I haven’t come to you empty handed : I bring you poetry as great as yours but in anther tongue , I bring you black eyes and golden skin and curly hair , I bring you Islam and Luxor and Alexandria and Lutes and tambourines and date-palms and silk rugs and sunshine and incense and voluptuous ways Picture Quote #1

For me, growing up in Detroit, scarves meant cold weather. But I remember working in a store, and we had some silk scarves - like, wide scarves with fringe - and because I had seen the English rockers wearing skinny silk scarves, I took the scarves, cut and sewed them, and made them long - almost like a tie Picture Quote #1

War is a bazaar where lives are traded like any other commodity: chocolate or bullets or parachute silk Picture Quote #1

Why is a caterpillar wrapped in silk while it changes into a butterfly? So the other caterpillars can’t hear the screams. Change hurts Picture Quote #1

When I get home, I’m not the boss like I am at work - I slip into a more feminine role. I take everything off and put on my Stella McCartney silk robe. I’ll put on a red lip or red nails, and it lifts my mood. Sexy underwear also gives you a spark Picture Quote #1

My mom dressed me in silk to go to elementary school. In kindergarten, they sent me home because I couldn’t do finger painting in my dress Picture Quote #1

I am iron butterfly ... / I am she/we / of flesh / and iron / and silk wings, / healing, flying / into a gentle blue sky Picture Quote #1

The best way to make a silk purse from a sow’s ear is to begin with a silk sow. The same is true of money Picture Quote #1

One disadvantage of being a hog is that at any moment some blundering fool may try to make a silk purse out of your wife’s ear Picture Quote #1

Some primal force roared inside him, his possessive streak taking charge. He cupped the back of her head, her hair falling over the back of his hand like silk, and tightened his grip. The moment she softened against him, he took control Picture Quote #1

If you get a bad script, then you start expending energy trying to make a silk purse of a sow’s ear. When the script’s as good as those on ‘Game of Thrones,’ say, I don’t think there was a single occasion where any of us thought there was a bad scene Picture Quote #1

I wanted to see how flavors, spices, and grains traveled back and forth along the Silk Road and were interpreted by a multitude of cultures’ palates Picture Quote #1

In my own creations, the earliest influence came from the ancient civilisations of Egypt, China, Africa and Persia. In fact, one of my earlier creations was a range of tunics, made from silk procured from the islands of Madagascar Picture Quote #1

My mother was right: When you’ve got nothing left, all you can do is get into silk underwear and start reading Proust Picture Quote #1

We always describe a piece as ‘really lively’ where it seems the work dances off the paper or the silk. Art has to hit you on an emotional level rather than just the analytical Picture Quote #1

Clothes have special power. I’ll always remember the raspberry colored v-necked silk sweater I was wearing on my husband and my first date. If I hadn’t been wearing that sweater that night, would any of it have happened? Picture Quote #1

True power does not need arrogance, a long beard and a barking voice. True power strangles you with silk ribbons, charm and intelligence Picture Quote #1

I love intimate details like lingerie, something like a gorgeous silk stocking or exquisite slipper Picture Quote #1

The idea of a star being born is bushwa. A star is created, carefully and cold-bloodily, built up from nothing, from nobody. Age, beauty, talent, least of all talent, has nothing to do with it. We could make silk purses out of sows’ ears every day of the week Picture Quote #1

Oppose kindness to perverseness. The heavy sword will not cut soft silk; by using sweet words and gentleness you may lead an elephant with a hair Picture Quote #1

Maddie took the top of her egg off. The hot bright yolk was like summer sun breaking through cloud. The first daffodil in the snow. A gold sovereign wrapped in a white silk handkerchief. She dipped her spoon in it and licked it Picture Quote #1

I never liked that ending either. More love streaming out the wrong way, and I don’t want to be the kind that says the wrong way. But it doesn’t work, these erasures, this constant refolding of the pleats. There were some nice parts, sure, all lemondrop and mellonball, laughing in silk pajamas and the grain of sugar on the toast, love love or whatever, take a number. I’m sorry it’s such a lousy story Picture Quote #1

In the dark I rest, unready for the light which dawns day after day, eager to be shared. Black silk, shelter me. I need more of the night before I open eyes and heart to illumination. I must still grow in the dark like a root not ready, not ready at all Picture Quote #1
