Famous quotes containing the words violets and/or blue:

    “Who are the violets now
    That strew the green lap of the new-come spring?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Two wooden tubs of blue hydrangeas stand at the foot of the stone steps.
    The sky is a blue gum streaked with rose. The trees are black.
    The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air.
    Moisture and heat have swollen the garden into a slum of bloom.
    Pardie! Summer is like a fat beast, sleepy in mildew....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
