Famous quotes containing the words grove and/or bush:

    Worry and brown desk
    Stain it by infusion. There aren’t enough tags at the end,
    And the grove is blind, blossoming, but we are too porous to hear it.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Let the others have the charisma. I’ve got the class.
    —George Bush (b. 1924)
