Roses/art

Famous quotes containing the words roses and/or art:

    Say that she rail, why then I’ll tell her plain
    She sings as sweetly as a nightingale.
    Say that she frown, I’ll say she looks as clear
    As morning roses newly washed with dew.
    Say she be mute, and will not speak a word,
    Then I’ll commend her volubility,
    And say she uttereth piercing eloquence.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Fear no more the frown o’ th’ great,
    Thou art past the tyrant’s stroke;
    Care no more to clothe and eat,
    To thee the reed is as the oak.
    The sceptre, learning, physic, must
    All follow this and come to dust.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
