French Quotes › cuvette › Jean de La Fontaine
📖 Quote about cuvette
Un bloc de marbre était si beau Qu'un statuaire en fit l'emplette. Qu'en fera, dit-il, mon ciseau ? Sera-t-il dieu, table ou cuvette ?
A block of marble was so beautiful that a sculptor bought it. What will my chisel do with it, he said? Will he be god, table or bowl?
— Jean de La Fontaine Château-Thierry 1621-Paris 1695
