European Honey Bee

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

    “European society has always been divided into classes in a way that American society never has been. A European writer considers himself to be part of an old and honorable tradition—of intellectual activity, of letters—and his choice of a vocation does not cause him any uneasy wonder as to whether or not it will cost him all his friends. But this tradition does not exist in America.”
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    “Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
    And is there honey still for tea?”
    —Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)

    “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)
