Barks Stories

Famous quotes containing the words barks and/or stories:

    Society is all but rude,
    To this delicious solitude.

    No white nor red was ever seen
    So amorous as this lovely green.
    Fond lovers, cruel as their flame,
    Cut in these trees their mistress’ name:
    Little, alas, they know or heed
    How far these beauties hers exceed!
    Fair trees, wheresoe’er your barks I wound,
    No name shall but your own be found.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    If you like to make things out of wood, or sew, or dance, or style people’s hair, or dream up stories and act them out, or play the trumpet, or jump rope, or whatever you really love to do, and you love that in front of your children, that’s going to be a far more important gift than anything you could ever give them wrapped up in a box with ribbons.
    Fred M. Rogers (20th century)
