Apples

Famous quotes containing the word apples:

    Now it is autumn and the falling fruit
    and the long journey towards oblivion.
    The apples falling like great drops of dew
    to bruise themselves an exit from themselves.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    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)

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