Milk Quotations
Some people regard private enterprise as a predatory tiger to be shot. Others look on it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse, pulling a sturdy wagon.
Winston Churchill
Get off your horse and drink your milk.
John Wayne
I am thankful for laughter, except when milk comes out of my nose.
Woody Allen
Never cry over spilt milk, because it may have been poisoned.
W. C. Fields
Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I write in order to attain that feeling of tension relieved and function achieved which a cow enjoys on giving milk.
H. L. Mencken
The cow is of the bovine ilk; one end is moo, the other milk.
Ogden Nash
Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals.
George Orwell
There is no sense in crying over spilt milk. Why bewail what is done and cannot be recalled?
Sophocles
You can only milk a cow so long, then you're left holding the pail.
Hank Aaron
