Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

“Every New Englander might easily raise all his own breadstuffs in this land of rye and Indian corn, and not depend on distant and fluctuating markets for them.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“There is no sugar cane that is sweet at both ends.”
—Chinese proverb.

“Thus am I still provoked to every evil
By this good wicked spirit, sweet angel devil.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
