Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

“Oh, London is a man’s town, there’s power in the air;
And Paris is a woman’s town, with flowers in her hair;

But when it comes to living, there is no place like home.”
—Henry Van Dyke (1852–1933)

“Cried out the whole night long,
Crying amid the glittering sea,
Naming it with ecstatic breath,
Because it had such dignity,
By the sweet name of Death.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“The Lord hath created medicines out of the earth: and he that is wise will not abhor them. Was not the water made sweet with wood, that the virtue thereof might be known?”
