Famous quotes containing the words myrtle and/or avenue:
“Boy, I hate their empty shows,
Persian garlands I detest,
Bring me not the late-blown rose

Plainer myrtle pleases me
Thus outstretched beneath my vine,
Myrtle more becoming thee,
Waiting with thy master’s wine.”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8)
