Warm Core

Famous quotes containing the words warm and/or core:

    I have forgotten much, but still remember
    The poinsettia’s red, blood-red in warm December.
    Claude McKay (1889–1948)

    The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
    They are no wealthier than I;
    But with as brave a core within
    They rear their boughs to the October sky.
    Poor knights they are which bravely wait
    The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
    Keeping a simple Roman state,
    Discumbered of their Persian luxury.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
