biscuit的知名引用和例句

A biscuit in the States is something you would put gravy on with dinner, and it's not sweet in the least!
Obviously, you would give your life for your children, or give them the last biscuit on the plate. But to me, the trick in life is to take that sense of generosity between kin, make it apply to the extended family and to your neighbour, your village and beyond.
