Willow Lawn

Famous quotes containing the words willow and/or lawn:

“I am a willow of the wilderness,
Loving the wind that bent me. All my hurts
My garden spade can heal. A woodland walk,
A quest of river-grapes, a mocking thrush,
A wild-rose, or rock-loving columbine,
Salve my worst wounds.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“On the lawn at the villa—
That’s the way to start, eh, reader?
We know where we stand—somewhere expensive—”
—Louis Simpson (b. 1923)
