Grass Quotations
It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up. Muhammad Ali That though the radiance which was once so bright be now forever taken from my sight. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, glory in the flower. We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind. William Wordsworth To us also, through every star, through every blade of grass, is not God made visible if we will open our minds and our eyes. Thomas Carlyle I celebrate myself, and what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you. I loafe and invite my soul, I lean and loafe at my ease... observing a spear of summer grass. Walt Whitman If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence. George Eliot |
