Letter "P" » pipe
«Writing is manual labor of the mind: a job, like laying pipe.»
«The pipe draws wisdom from the lips of the philosopher, and shuts up the mouth of the foolish: it generates a style of conversation, contemplative, thoughtful, benevolent, and unaffected.»
«Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.»
«Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! / And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the LORD, neither consider the operation of his hands.»
«Writing or printing is like shooting with a rifle; you may hit your reader's mind, or miss it - but talking is like playing at a mark with the pipe of an engine; if it is within reach, and you have time enough, you can't help hitting it»

«The pipe, with solemn interposing puff,Makes half a sentence at a time enough;The dozing sages drop the drowsy strain,Then pause, and puff -- and speak, and pause again.»
