Wild Silks

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or silks:

    “You did not expect to find such spruce trees in the wild woods, but they evidently attend to their toilets each morning even there. Through such a front yard did we enter that wilderness.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “My silks and fine array,
    My smiles and languish’d air,
    By Love are driv’n away;
    And mournful lean Despair
    Brings me yew to deck my grave:
    Such end true lovers have.”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)
