Rug Quotations
To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.
Helen Keller
I will not play tug o' war. I'd rather play hug o' war. Where everyone hugs instead of tugs, Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug, Where everyone kisses, and everyone grins, and everyone cuddles, and everyone wins.
Shel Silverstein

Jackson Browne

Herschel Walker
I'm not trying to pull the rug out from under anybody, but the music really does tell you where to go.
Trey Anastasio
