I thought that I'd share a few tea quotes with you all.

~Enjoy!

----------------------

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

---------------

We had a kettle;we let it leak:

Our not repairing made it worse.

We haven't had any tea for a week...

The bottom is out of the Universe.~Rudyard Kipling

-------------

O' peppermint tea

-two delights per sip

as steamy hot as passion

cool as a wintry lake dip
~Astrid Alauda

-----------------

Remember the tea kettle - it is always up to its neck in hot water, yet it still sings! ~Author Unknown

-----------------

Tea that helps our head and heart.

Tea medicates most every part.

Tea rejuvenates the very old.

Tea warms the hands of those who're cold.
J. Jonker, Amsterdam, circa 1670

-----------------

"I can just imagine myself sitting down at the head of the table and pouring out the tea," said Anne, shutting her eyes ecstatically, "and asking Diana if she takes sugar! I know she doesn't but of course I'll ask her just as if I didn't know."--Anne of Green Gables

Come and share a pot of tea,My home is warm and my friendship's free.--Emilie Barnes
