Famous quotes containing the words rose and/or fyleman:

    In real life, unlike in Shakespeare, the sweetness of the rose depends upon the name it bears. Things are not only what they are. They are, in very important respects, what they seem to be.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    I think mice
    Are rather nice.

    Their tails are long,
    Their faces small,
    They haven’t any
    Chins at all.
    —Rose Fyleman (1877–1957)
