Crisp Quotations
I was probably the best that ever walked this earth. And I could take a punch. I could deliver a punch. I didn't have the hardest punch in the world but my punches were sharp and they were crisp. And if you took too many of them, you would be knocked out. Larry Holmes It's a beautiful thing, diving into the cool crisp water and then just sort of being able to pull your body through the water and the water opening up for you. Dawn Fraser Lettuce is like conversation; it must be fresh and crisp, so sparkling that you scarcely notice the bitter in it. Charles Dudley Warner |
