Holly Pond

Famous quotes containing the words holly and/or pond:

    in the holly prickles
    You can plainly see
    The crown of thorns our Saviour wore
    —Unknown. The Holly and the Ivy (l. 13–15)

    What if all ponds were shallow? Would it not react on the minds of men? I am thankful that this pond was made deep and pure for a symbol. While men believe in the infinite some ponds will be thought to be bottomless.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
