Yes, I heard my people singing!--in the glow of parlor coal-stove and on summer porches sweet with lilac air, from choir loft and Sunday morning pews--and my soul was filled with their harmonies.
Paul Robeson
It's funny how the scent of lilacs takes you back to the first time you ever smelled one. Suddenly you are 8 years old again!
Fear is a slinking cat I find beneath the lilacs of my mind.
Sophie Tunnell quotes
