Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

    “When a man lives with God, his voice shall be as sweet as the murmur of the brook and the rustle of the corn.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Sweet are the thoughts that savour of content,
    The quiet mind is richer than a crown;
    Sweet are the nights in careless slumber spent,
    The poor estate scorns Fortune’s angry frown.
    Such sweet content, such minds, such sleep, such bliss,
    Beggars enjoy, when princes oft do miss.”
    —Robert Greene (1558?–1592)

    “I think no woman I have had ever gave me so sweet a moment, or at so light a price, as the moment I owe to a newly heard musical phrase.”
    —Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)
