oranges quotes

  • Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning, and the first thing that I knew There was milk and toast and honey and a bowl of oranges, too. And the sun poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses.

    -Joni (RobertaJoan) ne  e  Anderson Mitchell
      'Chelsea Morning'.

  • Complacencies of the peignoir, and late Coffee and oranges in a sunny chair, And the green freedom of a cockatoo Upon a rug mingle to dissipate The holy hush of ancient sacrifice.

    -Wallace Stevens
      Harmonium,'Sunday Morning', pt.1.
