Famous quotes containing the words maple and/or neck:
“Unloved, that beech will gather brown,
This maple burn itself away;
Unloved, the sun-flower, shining fair,
Ray round with flames her disk of seed,
And many a rose-carnation feed
With summer spice the humming air;”

“The wisdom of history, how she takes
Each epoch by the neck and, growling, shakes
It like a rat while she faintly mews.”
