Famous quotes containing the words lily and/or young:
“It is not growing like a tree
In bulk, doth make man better be,
Or standing long an oak, three hundred year,
To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere:
A lily of a day
Is fairer far in May
Although it fall and die that night;
It was the plant and flower of light.
In small proportions we just beauties see,
And in short measures life may perfect be.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
“There goes a saying, and ‘twas shrewdly said,
Old fish at table, but young flesh in bed.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
