Famous quotes containing the words violet and/or burning:
“I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite overcanopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses, and with eglantine:
There sleeps Titania sometime of the night,
Lulled in these flowers with dances and delight.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Lie still, sleep becalmed, sufferer with the wound
In the throat, burning and turning.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
