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)
“From the four corners of the earth they come
To kiss this shrine, this mortal-breathing saint.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
