Famous quotes containing the word violet:
“It were as wise to cast a violet into a crucible that you might discover the formal principle of its colour and odour, as seek to transfuse from one language into another the creations of a poet. The plant must spring again from its seed, or it will bear no flower—and this is the burthen of the curse of Babel.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
“I think the King is but a man, as I am. The violet smells to
him as it doth to me.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A violet in the youth of primy nature,
Forward, not permanent, sweet, not lasting.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
