Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

    lady through whose profound and fragile lips
    the sweet small clumsy feet of April came

    into the ragged meadow of my soul.
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    Macbeth. Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased,
    Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow,
    Raze out the written troubles of the brain,
    And with some sweet oblivious antidote
    Cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous stuff
    Which weighs upon the heart?
    Doctor. Therein the patient
    Must minister to himself.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The dancers crowded about him
    And many a sweet thing said,
    And a young man brought him red wine
    And a young girl white bread.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
