Flower Palace

Famous quotes containing the words flower and/or palace:

    Until I was twenty-five, I had no development at all. From my twenty-fifth year I date my life. Three weeks have scarcely passed, at any time between then and now, that I have not unfolded within myself. But I feel that I am now come to the inmost leaf of the bulb, and that shortly the flower must fall to the mould.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    For the Christ-child who comes is the Master of all;
    No palace too great, no cottage too small.
    Phillips Brooks (1835–1893)
