Famous quotes containing the words poison and/or hemlock:
“The vilest deeds like poison weeds,
Bloom well in prison-air;
It is only what is good in Man
That wastes and withers there:
Pale Anguish keeps the heavy gate,
And the Warder is Despair.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
