European Honey Bee

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

    I should think the American admiration of five-minute tourists has done more to kill the sacredness of old European beauty and aspiration than multitudes of bombs would have done.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    A kiss is but a kiss now! and no wave
    Of a great flood that whirls me to the sea.
    But, as you will! we’ll sit contentedly,
    And eat our pot of honey on the grave.
    George Meredith (1828–1909)

    Where the bee sucks, there suck I,
    In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
    There I couch when owls do cry.
    On the bat’s back I do fly
    After summer merrily.
    Merrily, merrily shall I live now,
    Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
