European Honey Bee

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

    In European thought in general, as contrasted with American, vigor, life and originality have a kind of easy, professional utterance. American—on the other hand, is expressed in an eager amateurish way. A European gives a sense of scope, of survey, of consideration. An American is strained, sensational. One is artistic gold; the other is bullion.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Y’know the trouble with us is, we’ve both got the same disease—money, and happy ways of spending it.
    —Mark Hanna. Nathan Hertz. Honey Parker (Yvette Vickers)

    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)
