Cup Of Green Tea Quotes & Sayings

And I knew what I wanted: I would settle in a hill station and write my novel. I had visions of myself at a table on a large veranda, my notes spread out in front of me next to a steaming cup of tea. Green hills heavy with mists would lie at my feet and the shrill cries of monkeys would fill my ears.

I hated tobacco. I could have almost lent my support to any institution that had for its object the putting of tobacco smokers to death ...

For my part, I consider that tobacco, in moderation, is a sweetener and equalizer of the temper. — Thomas Huxley

When I am at my work each day
In the fields so fresh and green
I often think of riches and the way things might have been
But believe me when I tell you when I get home each day

If you were green tea, I'd be your tea cup. If you were dark chocolate, I'd be the paper that wraps you up. If you were a train, I'd be your tracks
