Famous quotes containing the words white and/or flowers:
“It was the pine alone, chiefly the white pine, that had tempted any but the hunter to precede us on this route.”

Where China’s gayest art had dyed
The azure flowers that blow;
Demurest of the tabby kind,
The pensive Selima reclined,
Gazed on the lake below.”
