Lesser

Famous quotes containing the word lesser:

    “So hills and valleys into singing break;
    And though poor stones have neither speech nor tongue,
    While active winds and streams both run and speak,
    Yet stones are deep in admiration.
    Thus praise and prayer here beneath the Sun
    Make lesser mornings when the great are done.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “Flower sent to flower;
    for white hands, the lesser white,
    less lovely of flower leaf.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “As great minds have the faculty of saying a great deal in a few words, so lesser minds have a talent of talking much, and saying nothing.”
