European Honey Bee

Famous quotes containing the words european, honey and/or bee:

    It has become necessary to call the attention of European governments to a fact which is apparently so insignificant that the governments seem not to notice it. The fact is this: an entire people is being annihilated. Where? In Europe. Are there witnesses? One witness, the entire world. Do the governments see it? No.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    Her body is a honey bowl
    Whose waiting honey is deep and hot.
    Her body is like summer earth,
    Receptive, soft, and absolute . . .
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Like the bee that now is blown,
    Honey-heavy on my hand,
    From his toppling tansy-throne
    In the green tempestuous land—
    Edmund Blunden (1896–1974)
