Apples

Famous quotes containing the word apples:

    At the top of the house the apples are laid in rows,
    John Drinkwater (1882–1937)

    What wondrous life in this I lead!
    Ripe apples drop about my head;
    The luscious clusters of the vine
    Upon my mouth do crush their wine;
    The nectarine and curious peach
    Into my hands themselves do reach;
    Stumbling on melons, as I pass,
    Ensnared with flowers, I fall on grass.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    a place in the world’s core,
    Where passion grows to be a changeless thing,
    Like charmèd apples made of chrysoprase,
    Or chrysoberyl, or beryl, or chrysolite;
    And there, in juggleries of sight and sense,
    Become one movement, energy, delight....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
