Famous quotes containing the words manuel and/or herrick:

    And Manuel embraced his mother and they laughed together: Délira’s laugh sounded surprisingly young; that was because she hadn’t really had the chance to make it heard; life was just not happy enough for that. No, she never had time to use it; she had kept it fresh as can be, like a birdsong in an old nest.
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

    Now is the time for mirth,
    Nor cheek or tongue be dumb;
    For with the flowery earth
    The golden pomp is come.
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
