Rose Tree

Famous quotes containing the words rose and/or tree:

“I did not pray Him to lay bare
The mystery to me,
Enough the rose was Heaven to smell,
And His own face to see.”

“Some say that happiness is not good for mortals, & they ought to be answered that sorrow is not fit for immortals & is utterly useless to any one; a blight never does good to a tree, & if a blight kill not a tree but it still bear fruit, let none say that the fruit was in consequence of the blight.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
