'A HISTORY OF...'//TEA QUOTES//OUGD504-SUMMER

I decided it might be interesting to look at some famous quotes about tea for possible design ideas when I make my graphic product, things that could be used within the publication/body of work, for visual aspects and dispense information:

Tea is drunk to forget the din of the world.  - T'ien Yiheng

There is a great deal of poetry and fine sentiment in a chest of tea.  - Ralph Waldo Emerson, Letters and Social Aims

There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot be much diminished by a nice cup of tea.   - Bernard-Paul Heroux

If you are cold, tea will warm you.  If you are too heated, it will cool you.  If you are depressed, it will cheer you.  If you are excited, it will calm you.  - Gladstone, 1865

Tea should be taken in solitude.  - C.S. Lewis

If man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty.  - Japanese Proverb

Tea is liquid wisdom.  - Anonymous

Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves - slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future.  - Thich Nat Hahn
