Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or clock:
“We are frequently told that talents and genius are natural gifts; and so indeed they are, to the same extent that the productions of the garden and the field are natural gifts.”

“Up the reputable walks of old established trees
They stalk, children of the nouveaux riches; chimes
Of the tall Clock Tower drench their heads in blessing:
I dont wanna play at your house;
I dont like you any more.
My house stands opposite, on the other hill,”
—William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)
