Famous quotes containing the words robin and/or flower:
“A Robin Redbreast in a cage
Puts all Heaven in a Rage.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“To the young mind, every thing is individual, stands by itself. By and by, it finds how to join two things, and see in them one nature; then three, then three thousand; and so, tyrannized over by its own unifying instinct, it goes on tying things together, diminishing anomalies, discovering roots running underground, whereby contrary and remote things cohere, and flower out from one stem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
