Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or emotion:
“The morning rose, that untouched stands
Armed with her briars, how sweet she smells!
But plucked and strained through ruder hands,
Her sweets no longer with her dwells,
But scent and beauty both are gone,
And leaves fall from her, one by one.”
—Sir Robert Ayton (1570–1638)
“The writer’s joy is the thought that can become emotion, the emotion that can wholly become a thought.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
