Flower Palace

Famous quotes containing the words flower and/or palace:

    “Fenced early in this cloistral round
    Of reverie, of shade, of prayer,
    How should we grow in other ground?
    How can we flower in foreign air?
    MPass, banners, pass, and bugles, cease;
    And leave our desert to its peace!”
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    You weep, you weep for the sun an Image.
    ...
    the wind calls hideously,
    woe for the children’s fate,
    woe for a palace rent,
    woe, woe for these who spent
    life-blood
    in hate.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
