James Norwood Pratt Quotes

Tea is quiet and our thirst for tea is never far from our craving for beauty.

No pleasure is simpler, no luxury cheaper, no consciousness-altering substance more benign.

Tea-making is a ritual that, like the drink itself, warms the heart somehow.

Tea is also a sort of spiritual refreshment, an elixir of clarity and wakeful tranquility.

Tea is quiet and it takes a quiet palate to appreciate something that calls so little attention to itself.
