Red Rose

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or rose:

“To-night the winds begin to rise
And roar from yonder dropping day:
The last red leaf is whirl’d away,
The rooks are blown about the skies;

The forest crack’d, the waters curl’d,
The cattle huddled on the lea;”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“An idealist is one who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better soup.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
