Fairest

Famous quotes containing the word fairest:

    With fairest flowers
    Whilst summer lasts and I live here, Fidele,
    I’ll sweeten thy sad grave. Thou shalt not lack
    The flower that’s like thy face, pale primrose, nor
    The azured harebell, like thy veins; no, nor
    The leaf of eglantine, whom not to slander,
    Outsweetened not thy breath.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The fairest things have fleetest end,
    Their scent survives their close:
    But the rose’s scent is bitterness
    To him that loved the rose.
    Francis Thompson (1859–1907)

    Away, and mock the time with fairest show;
    False face must hide what the false heart doth know.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
