Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or garlic:
“I hid my love when young till I
Couldn’t bear the buzzing of a fly;
I hid my life to my despite
Till I could not bear to look at light:
I dare not gaze upon her face
But left her memory in each place;
Where’er I saw a wild flower lie
I kissed and bade my love good-bye.”
—John Clare (1793–1864)
“Hatred, for the man who is not engaged in it, is a little like the odor of garlic for one who hasn’t eaten any.”
—Jean Rostand (1894–1977)
