White Rose Society

Famous quotes containing the words white, rose and/or society:

    She’s me. She represents everything I feel, everything I want to be. I’m so locked into her that what she says is unimportant.
    Diane Valleta, White American suburbanite. As quoted in the New York Times, p. A13 (July 29, 1992)

    No prayers or incense rose up in those hours
    Which grew to be years, and every day came mute
    Ghosts from the ovens, sitting through crisp air,
    And settled upon his eyes in a black soot.
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

    I shall not want Society in Heaven,
    Lucretia Borgia shall be my Bride;
    Her anecdotes will be more amusing
    Than Pipit’s experience could provide.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
