Blooming

Famous quotes containing the word blooming:

    The spring over there takes you by the throat, the flowers blooming by the thousands over white walls. If you strolled around for an hour in the hills surrounding my town, you would return with the odor of honey in your clothes.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    ‘Tis the last rose of summer
    Left blooming alone;
    All her lovely companions
    Are faded and gone;
    Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

    ‘It’s the same the whole world over;
    It’s the poor that gets the blame,
    It’s the rich that gets the pleasure.
    Isn’t it a blooming shame?’
    —Unknown. She Was Poor but She Was Honest (l. 37–40)
