A plumber is an adventurer who traces leaky pipes to their source.
Arthur Baer
An abundant supply of excellent water, forming a volume equal in bulk to the human body, is conveyed by one of these pipes, and distributed about the city, where it is used by the inhabitants for drink and other purposes.
Hernando Cortes
I had a romance novel inside me, but I paid three sailors to beat it out if me with steel pipes.
Patton Oswalt
I never drink water; that is the stuff that rusts pipes.
W. C. Fields
Night fell clean and cold in Dublin, and wind moaned beyond my room as if a million pipes played the air.
Patricia Cornwell
Others are keen to see if natives other than us live better than we do, without heat in pipes, ice in boxes, sunshine in bulbs, music on disks, or images gliding over a pale screen.
Ella Maillart
The society which scorns excellence in plumbing as a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy: neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water.
John W. Gardner
Women thrive on novelty and are easy meat for the commerce of fashion. Men prefer old pipes and torn jackets.
Anthony Burgess
