Burns

Famous quotes containing the word burns:

“It is because everything is relative
That we shall never see in that sphere of pure wisdom and
Entertainment much more than groping shadows of an incomplete
Former existence so close it burns like the mouth that
Closes down over all your effort like the moment
Of death”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“To see her is to love her,
And love but her for ever;
For Nature made her what she is,
And never made anither!”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)

“O whistle, and I’ll come to you, my lad;
O whistle, and I’ll come to you, my lad:
Tho’ father and mither and a’ should gae mad,
O whistle, and I’ll come to you, my lad.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
