Famous quotes containing the words lone and/or pine:
“Your star, steel-set, keeps lone and frigid tryst
to freighted ships, baffled in wind and blast.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“...what a thing it is to lie there all day in the fine breeze, with the pine needles dropping on one, only to return to the hotel at night so hungry that the dinner, however homely, is a fete, and the menu finer reading than the best poetry in the world! Yet we are to leave all this for the glare and blaze of Nice and Monte Carlo; which is proof enough that one cannot become really acclimated to happiness.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
