Sweet Almonds

Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or almonds:

“O how wretched
Is that poor man that hangs on princes’ favours!
There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,
That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,
More pangs and fears than wars or women have,
And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
Never to hope again.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“One would give plenty of almonds if one had eyes to see the beauty of a receiving hand.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
