Famous quotes containing the words flower and/or mound:
“But the flower leaned aside
And thought of naught to say,
And morning found the breeze
A hundred miles away.”

“Why should not our whole life and its scenery be actually thus fair and distinct? All our lives want a suitable background. They should at least, like the life of the anchorite, be as impressive to behold as objects in a desert, a broken shaft or crumbling mound against a limitless horizon.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
