Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

“I was with Hercules and Cadmus once,
When in a wood of Crete they bayed the bear
With hounds of Sparta: never did I hear
Such gallant chiding; for besides the groves,
The skies, the fountains, every region near
Seemed all one mutual cry. I never heard
So musical a discord, such sweet thunder.”
—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)

“That she was never yet that ever knew
Love got so sweet as when desire did sue.
Therefore this maxim out of love I teach:
Achievement is command; ungained, beseech.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
