Green Springs

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or springs:

    “But bear in mind your lover’s wage
    Is what your looking-glass can show,
    And that he will turn green with rage
    At all that is not pictured there.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “For it is the suffering flesh, it is suffering, it is death, that lovers perpetuate upon the earth. Love is at once the brother, son, and father of death, which is its sister, mother, and daughter. And thus it is that in the depth of love there is a depth of eternal despair, out of which springs hope and consolation.”
    —Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936)
