Famous quotes containing the words stone and/or flower:

    Too long a sacrifice
    Can make a stone of the heart.
    O when may it suffice?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    There grew pied wind-flowers and violets,
    Daisies, those pearl’d Arcturi of the earth,
    The constellated flower that never sets;
    Faint oxlips; tender bluebells at whose birth
    The sod scarce heaved; and that tall flower that wets
    Its mother’s face with heaven-collected tears,
    When the low wind, its playmate’s voice, it hears.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
