Violet Bank

Famous quotes containing the words violet and/or bank:

    A violet in the youth of primy nature,
    Forward, not permanent, sweet, not lasting.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    That strain again, it had a dying fall;
    O, it came o’er my ear like the sweet sound
    That breathes upon a bank of violets,
    Stealing and giving odor. Enough, no more,
    ‘Tis not so sweet now as it was before.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
