Famous quotes containing the words grass and/or court:

    “The first in time and the first in importance of the influences upon the mind is that of nature. Every day, the sun; and after sunset, night and her stars. Ever the winds blow; ever the grass grows.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “GOETHE, raised o’er joy and strife,
    Drew the firm lines of Fate and Life,
    And brought Olympian wisdom down
    To court and mar, to gown and town,
    Stooping, his finger wrote in clay
    The open secret of to-day.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
