Longer Sing

Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or sing:

    “I leaf through books, I do not study them. What I retain of them is something I no longer recognize as anyone else’s.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “I sing of brooks, of blossoms, birds and bowers,
    Of April, May, of June and July-flowers;
    I sing of May-poles, hock-carts, wassails, wakes,
    Of bridegrooms, brides and of their bridal cakes;
    I write of youth, of love, and have access
    By these to sing of cleanly wantonness;”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
