Famous quotes containing the words poison and/or oak:

    “My heart pumps yet the poison draught of you.”
    —William Empson (1906–1984)

    “When the red-cheeked, dancing girls, April and May, trip home to the wintry, misanthropic woods; even the barest, ruggedest, most thunder-cloven old oak will at least send forth some few green sprouts, to welcome such glad-hearted visitants.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
