Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or lilies:
“The beasts, the fishes, and the winged fowls
Are their males’ subjects and at their controls:
Man, more divine, the master of all these,
Lord of the wide world and wild watery seas,
Indued with intellectual sense and souls,
Of more pre-eminence than fish and fowls,
Are masters to their females, and their lords:
Then let your will attend on their accords.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I met a little Elf-man, once,
Down where the lilies blow.
I asked him why he was so small
And why he didn’t grow.”
—John Kendrick Bangs (1862–1922)
