Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

    Truth and kindness in sweet embrace,
    Righteousness and peace are God’s grace;
    For truth out of the earth does spring,
    And righteousness from heaven ring.
    Faye T. Bresler (b. 1959)

    So cruel prison how could betide, alas,
    As proud Windsor, Where I in lust and joy
    With a king’s son my childish years did pass
    In greater feast than Priam’s sons of Troy?
    Where each sweet place returns a taste full sour;
    Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    The private life of one man shall be a more illustrious monarchy,—more formidable to its enemy, more sweet and serene in its influence to its friend, than any kingdom in history. For a man, rightly viewed, comprehendeth the particular natures of all men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
