Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

    “I have been here before,
    But when or how I cannot tell:

    The sweet keen smell,
    The sighing sound, the lights around the shore.”
    —Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)

    “It is sweet to dance to violins
    When Love and Life are fair:
    To dance to flutes, to dance to lutes
    Is delicate and rare:
    But it is not sweet with nimble feet
    To dance upon the air!”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “To fair Fidele’s grassy tomb
    Soft maids and village hinds shall bring
    Each opening sweet of earliest bloom,
    And rifle all the breathing spring.”
