Sweets Corners

Famous quotes containing the words sweets and/or corners:

    The morning rose, that untouched stands
    Armed with her briars, how sweet she smells!
    But plucked and strained through ruder hands,
    Her sweets no longer with her dwells,
    But scent and beauty both are gone,
    And leaves fall from her, one by one.
    Sir Robert Ayton (1570–1638)

    Critics are sentinels in the grand army of letters, stationed at the corners of newspapers and reviews, to challenge every new author.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
