Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

    Ah, it is sweet on the hills,
    to dance in sacred faun-pelt,
    to dance until one falls faint,
    to beat the sacred dance-beat
    until one drops down
    worn out.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “I spit
    honey out of my mouth:
    nothing is second-best
    after the sweet of Eros.”
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    With astonishment Aschenbach noticed that the boy was entirely beautiful. His countenance, pale and gracefully reserved, was surrounded by ringlets of honey-colored hair, and with its straight nose, its enchanting mouth, its expression of sweet and divine gravity, it recalled Greek sculpture of the noblest period.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
