Famous quotes containing the words left and/or bosom:
“She planted corn and left the rest
to elements, convinced that God
with giant faucets regulates the rain
and saves the crops from frost or foreign wind.”
—Richard Hugo (19231982)
“Cling with life to the maid;
But when the surprise,
First vague shadow of surmise
Flits across her bosom young,
Of a joy apart from thee,
Free be she, fancy-free;
Nor thou detain her vestures hem,
Nor the palest rose she flung
From her summer diadem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
