Venice Gardens

Famous quotes containing the words venice and/or gardens:

    I know our country disposition well;
    In Venice they do let God see the pranks
    They dare not show their husbands; their best conscience
    Is not to leave’t undone, but keep’t unknown.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Thou didst create the night, but I made the lamp.
    Thou didst create clay, but I made the cup.
    Thou didst create the deserts, mountains and forests,
    I produced the orchards, gardens and groves.
    It is I who made the glass out of stone,
    And it is I who turn a poison into an antidote.
    Muhammad, Sir Iqbal (1873–1938)
