Famous quotes containing the word lovely:
“Childhood itself is scarcely more lovely than a cheerful, kind, sunshiny old age.”
—Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)
“Nothing is so beautiful as spring—
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
The ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
