Flowers

Famous quotes containing the word flowers:

    Then amongst flowers and springs,
    Making delightful sport,
    Sat lovers without conflict, without flame;
    Torquato Tasso (1544–1595)

    Our sea-walled garden, the whole land,
    Is full of weeds, her fairest flowers choked up,
    Her fruit-trees all unpruned, her hedges ruined,
    Her knots disordered, and her wholesome herbs
    Swarming with caterpillars.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
    And give us not to think so far away
    As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
    All simply in the springing of the year.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
