Rests

Famous quotes containing the word rests:

“Now night perfumes lie upon the air,
As rests the blossom on the loaded bough;
And each deep-drawn breath is redolent
Of all the folded flowers’ mingled scent
That rises in confused rapture now.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“My aversion from music rests on political grounds.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

And rests on others’ fame;”
