Famous quotes containing the words people, grew and/or homes:

    ...Advertising companies hire the very brightest, wittiest young people to write for them. Not one single sentence of it is worth repeating. Why? Because it wasn’t meant.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    There grew pied wind-flowers and violets,
    Daisies, those pearl’d Arcturi of the earth,
    The constellated flower that never sets;
    Faint oxlips; tender bluebells at whose birth
    The sod scarce heaved; and that tall flower that wets
    Its mother’s face with heaven-collected tears,
    When the low wind, its playmate’s voice, it hears.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    Over the water come
    Children from homes and children’s parks
    Who speak on a finger and thumb,
    And the masked, headless boy.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
