Corkscrew Quotes
Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.
W. C. Fields
Always carry a corkscrew and the wine shall provide itself.
Basil Bunting
We shed as we pick up, like travellers who must carry everything in their arms, and what we let fall will be picked up by those behind. The procession is very long and life is very short. We die on the march. But there is nothing outside the march so nothing can be lost to it. The missing plays of Sophocles will turn up piece by piece, or be written again in another language. Ancient cures for diseases will reveal themselves once more. Mathematical discoveries glimpsed and lost to view will have their time again. You do not suppose, my lady, that if all of Archimedes had been hiding in the great library of Alexandria, we would be at a loss for a corkscrew?
Tom Stoppard
I'm going out of my mind, oh, oh; with a pain that stops and starts; like a corkscrew to my heart; Ever since we've been apart.
Bob Dylan
Bring in the bottled lightning, a clean tumbler, and a corkscrew.
Charles Dickens
The day he moved out was terrible – That evening she went through hell. His absence wasn't a problem But the corkscrew had gone as well.
Wendy Cope
