Buds

Famous quotes containing the word buds:

    I am weary of days and hours,
    Blown buds of barren flowers,
    Desires and dreams and powers
    And everything but sleep.
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    The buds swell imperceptibly, without hurry or confusion, as if the short spring days were an eternity.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    From land to land; and in my breast
    Spring wakens too; and my regret
    Becomes an April violet,
    And buds and blossoms like the rest.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
