Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

“Every New Englander might easily raise all his own breadstuffs in this land of rye and Indian corn, and not depend on distant and fluctuating markets for them. Yet so far are we from simplicity and independence that, in Concord, fresh and sweet meal is rarely sold in the shops, and hominy and corn in a still coarser form are hardly used by any.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Away before me to sweet beds of flowers.
Love-thoughts lie rich when canopied with bowers.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“But the sweet cement, which in one sure band
Ties the whole frame, is Love
And Charitie.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
