Vita Sackville-West Quotes

It Always Seemed To Me That The Herbaceous Peony Is The Very Epitome Of June. Larger Than Any Rose,
it Has Something Of The Cabbage Rose's Voluminous Quality; And When It Finally Drops From The Vase, It
sheds Its Petticoats With A Bump On The Table, All In An Intact Heap, Much As A Rose Will Suddenly Fall,
making Us Look Up From Our Book Or Conversation, To Notice For One Moment The Death Of What Had
still Appeared To Be A Living Beauty.
