Native String

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or string:

    “A native health and innocence
    Within my bones did grow,
    And while my God did all his glories show,
    I felt a vigour in my sense
    That was all spirit: I within did flow
    With seas of life like wine;
    I nothing in the world did know
    But ‘twas divine.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “The string quartet plays for itself,
    gently, gently, sleeves and waxy bows.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
