Famous quotes containing the words rose and/or scott:

    O friend, my bosom said,
    Through thee alone the sky is arched,
    Through thee the rose is red,
    All things through thee take nobler form,
    And look beyond the earth,
    And is the mill-round of our fate
    A sun-path in thy worth.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
