Famous quotes containing the words plain and/or leaf:
“He all their ammunition
And feats of war defeats
With plain heroic magnitude of mind
And celestial vigour armed;”

“With fairest flowers
Whilst summer lasts and I live here, Fidele,
I’ll sweeten thy sad grave. Thou shalt not lack
The flower that’s like thy face, pale primrose, nor
The azured harebell, like thy veins; no, nor
The leaf of eglantine, whom not to slander,
Outsweetened not thy breath.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
