Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or danube:

    “It was beginning winter,
    An in-between time,
    The landscape still partly brown:
    The bones of weeds kept swinging in the wind,
    Above the blue snow.”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    “The Danube to the Severn gave
    The darken’d heart that beat no more;
    They laid him by the pleasant shore,
    And in the hearing of the wave.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
