Famous quotes containing the words yew and/or tree:
“My silks and fine array,
My smiles and languish’d air,
By Love are driv’n away;
And mournful lean Despair
Brings me yew to deck my grave:
Such end true lovers have.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“The spring is here, young and beautiful as ever, and absolutely shocking in its display of reckless maternity; but the Judas tree will bloom for you on the Bosphorus if you get there in time. No one ever loved the dog-wood and Judas tree as I have done, and it is my one crown of life to be sure that I am going to take them with me to heaven to enjoy real happiness with the Virgin and them.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
