With A Mosaic "Forget Me Not"
- Accept and wear this constant flower,
- Thus copied out by art.
- It blooms in Nature but its hour,--
- For ever in the heart.
- Affections into habits grown,--
- Lives fastened in one lot,--
- The flower has strengthened into stone
- We name "Forget me not."

Famous quotes containing the words with a and/or forget:
“Farm boys wild to couple
With anything with soft-wooded trees
With mounds of earthmounds
Of pine straw will keep themselves off
Animals by legends of their own:”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
“A new world is not made simply by trying to forget the old. A new world is made with a new spirit, with new values. Our world may have begun that way, but today it is caricatural. Our world is a world of things.... What we dread most, in the face of the impending débâcle, is that we shall be obliged to give up our gewgaws, our gadgets, all the little comforts that have made us so uncomfortable.... We are not peaceful souls; we are smug, timid, queasy and quakey.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
