Bubbles

Famous quotes containing the word bubbles:

    Give fools their gold, and knaves their power;
    Let fortune’s bubbles rise and fall;
    Who sows a field, or trains a flower,
    Or plants a tree, is more than all.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    Oh! a private buffoon is a light-hearted loon,
    If you listen to popular rumour;
    From morning to night he’s so joyous and bright,
    And he bubbles with wit and good humour!
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Oh, for the wonder that bubbles into my soul,
    I would be a good fountain, a good well-head,
    Would blur no whisper, spoil no expression.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
