Famous quotes containing the word violet:
“At the violet hour, when the eyes and back
Turn upward from the desk when the human engine waits
Like a taxi throbbing waiting,”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“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)
“A violet in the youth of primy nature,
Forward, not permanent, sweet, not lasting.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
