Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

Fine flowers in the valley,
And twinned the sweet babe o’ its life,
And the green leaves they grow rarely.”

Mother and lover of men, the sea.
I will go down to her, I and no other,
Close with her, kiss her and mix her with me.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)

“The terrifying message of gay liberation is that men are capable of loving their brothers. It should be sweet news to every woman in the world, for, if the capacity of men to love whom they have been taught to treat as competitors and enemies can transcend their education, the world can begin to heal.”
—Jane Rule (b. 1931)
