Burns

Famous quotes containing the word burns:

    Wee, modest, crimson-tipped flow’r,
    Thou’s met me in an evil hour;
    For I maun crush amang the stoure
    Thy slender stem:
    To spare thee now is past my pow’r,
    Thou bonnie gem.
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    Meditate nothing. Learn to contemplate.
    Contemplate glory. There will be a light.
    Contemplate Truth until it burns your eyes out.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    O My Luve’s like a red, red rose,
    That’s newly sprung in June;
    O My Luve’s like the melodie
    That’s sweetly played in tune.
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)
