Souvenir Leaf

Famous quotes containing the words souvenir and/or leaf:

    Beauty is ever to the lonely mind
    A shadow fleeting; she is never plain.
    She is a visitor who leaves behind
    The gift of grief, the souvenir of pain.
    Robert Nathan (1894–1985)

    I will not speak of the famous beauty of dead women:
    I will say the shape of a leaf lay once on your hair.
    Till the world ends and the eyes are out and the mouths broken,
    Look! It is there!
    Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)
