Famous quotes containing the words green and/or fame:
“a shiver, a delight
that what is passing
is here, as if
a snake went by, green in the
gray leaves.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“Fame sometimes hath created something out of nothing. She hath made whole countries more than nature ever did, especially near the poles, and then hath peopled them likewise with inhabitants of her own invention, pigmies, giants, and amazons: yea, fame is sometimes like unto a mushroom, which Pliny recounts to be the greatest miracle in nature, because growing and having no root, as fame no ground of her reports.”
—Thomas Fuller (1608–1661)
