Famous quotes containing the words robin and/or flower:

    ‘Lay me a green sod under my head,
    And another at my feet;
    And lay my bent bow at my side,
    Which was my music sweet;
    And make my grave of gravel and green,
    Which is most right and meet.
    —Unknown. Robin Hood’s Death (l. 65–70)

    The light passes
    from ridge to ridge,
    from flower to flower.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
