Warm Spring

Famous quotes containing the words warm and/or spring:

    ‘Alas!’ quoth he, ‘but newly born in fiery heats I fry,
    Yet none approach to warm their hearts or feel my fire but I.
    My faultless breast the furnace is, the fuel wounding thorns;
    Love is the fire, and sighs the smoke, the ashes shame and scorns;
    The fuel justice layeth on, and mercy blows the coals;
    The metal in this furnace wrought are men’s defiled souls;
    Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)

    Spring still makes spring in the mind,
    When sixty years are told;
    Love wakes anew this throbbing heart,
    And we are never old.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
