Famous quotes containing the words union, terrace and/or gardens:

    “Thus piteously Love closed what he begat:
    The union of this ever-diverse pair!
    These two were rapid falcons in a snare,
    Condemned to do the flitting of the bat.”
    —George Meredith (1828–1909)

    “A tree that can fill the span of a man’s arms
    Grows from a downy tip;
    A terrace nine stories high
    Rises from hodfuls of earth;
    A journey of a thousand miles
    Starts from beneath one’s feet.”
    —Lao-Tzu (6th century B.C.)

    “the men
    Leaving the gardens tidy,
    The thousands of marriages
    Lasting a little while longer:
    Never such innocence again.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1985)
