Bud Stage

Famous quotes containing the words bud and/or stage:

    And yet no greater, but more eminent,
    Love by the spring is grown;
    As, in the firmament,
    Stars by the sun are not enlarged, but shown,
    Gentle love deeds, as blossoms on a bough,
    From love’s awakened root do bud out now.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    In the right stage of the weather a pond fires its evening gun with great regularity.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
