«Weep no more, lady, weep no more,Thy sorrow is in vain;For violets, plucked the sweetest showersWill ne'er make grow again.»
«Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm schizophrenic, and so am I.»

«The violets in the mountains have broken the rocks.»
«The Mediterranean has the color of mackerel, changeable I mean. You don't always know if it is green or violet, you can't even say it's blue, because the next moment the changing reflection has taken on a tint of rose or gray.»
