Roses/art

Famous quotes containing the words roses and/or art:

    “There is sweet music here that softer falls
    Than petals from blown roses on the grass,
    Or night-dews on still waters between walls
    Of shadowy granite, in a gleaming pass;
    Music that gentlier on the spirit lies,
    Than tired eyelids upon tired eyes;
    Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “O mischief, thou art swift
    To enter in the thoughts of desperate men!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
