Famous quotes containing the words grove and/or nature:
“Bees don’t swarm in a mango grove for nothing.
Where can you see a wisp of smoke
without a fire?”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“No one lives in this room
without confronting the whiteness of the wall
behind the poems, planks of books,
photographs of dead heroines.
Without contemplating last and late
the true nature of poetry. The drive
to connect. The dream of a common language.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
