Famous quotes containing the words shrinking and/or violet:

    ““There is Hawthorne, with genius so shrinking and rare
    That you hardly at first see the strength that is there;
    A frame so robust, with a nature so sweet,
    So earnest, so graceful, so lithe and so fleet,
    Is worth a descent from Olympus to meet;”
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    “A violet by a mossy stone
    Half hidden from the eye!
    Fair as a star, when only one
    Is shining in the sky.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
