Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or oaks:
“When I was fair and young, and favor graced me,
Of many was I sought, their mistress for to be;

Go, go, go seek some otherwhere!
Importune me no more!”

“He had the oaks for heating and for light.
He had a hen, he had a pig in sight.
He had a well, he had the rain to catch.
He had a ten-by-twenty garden patch.
Nor did he lack for common entertainment.
That I assume was what our passing train meant.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
