Famous quotes containing the word almond:

    I want to go back, out of the bad stories,
    But there’s always the possibility that the next one . . .
    No, it’s another almond tree, or a ring-swallowing frog . . .
    Yet they are beautiful as we people them
    With ourselves.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
