Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or grasses:
“You mustn’t give your heart to a wild thing. The more you do, the stronger they get. Until they’re strong enough to run into the woods or fly into a tree. And then to a higher tree. And then to the sky.”
—George Axelrod (b. 1922)
“‘I’m sorry that I spelt the word:
I hate to go above you,
Because’Mthe brown eyes lower fell—
‘Because, you see, I love you!’
Still memory to a grey-haired man
That sweet child-face is showing.
Dear girl! the grasses on her grave
Have forty years been growing.”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
