Sweet Vitriol

Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or vitriol:

    “Considering that, all hatred driven hence,
    The soul recovers radical innocence
    And learns at last that it is self-delighting,
    Self-appeasing, self-affrighting,
    And that its own sweet will is Heaven’s will;”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Apples? New Hampshire has them, but unsprayed,
    With no suspicion in stem end or blossom end
    Of vitriol or arsenate of lead,
    And so not good for anything but cider.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
