Famous quotes containing the words bank and/or opens:
“I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite overcanopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses, and with eglantine:
There sleeps Titania sometime of the night,
Lulled in these flowers with dances and delight.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Homethat blessed word, which opens to the human heart the most perfect glimpse of Heaven, and helps to carry it thither, as on an angels wings.”
—Lydia M. Child (18021880)
