Famous quotes containing the words western, honey and/or bees:
“When lilacs last in the dooryard bloomed
And the great star early drooped in the western sky in the night,

Ever-returning spring, trinity sure to me you bring,
Lilac blooming perennial and drooping star in the west,
And thought of him I love.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

Nor honey make, nor pair, nor build, nor sing.”
