«Laurel: I'm incapable of small talk.»
Author: Jerry Maguire | Keywords: Laurel, laurels, small talk
«Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight, / And burn?d is Apollo's laurel-bough, / That sometime grew within this learn?d man.»

«LAUREATE, adj. Crowned with leaves of the laurel. In England the Poet Laureate is an officer of the sovereign's court, acting as dancing skeleton at every royal feast and singing-mute at every royal funeral. Of all incumbents of that high office, Robert Southey had the most notable knack at drugging the Samson of public joy and cutting his hair to the quick; and he had an artistic color-sense which enabled him so to blacken a public grief as to give it the aspect of a national crime.»
«LAUREL, n. The _laurus_, a vegetable dedicated to Apollo, and formerly defoliated to wreathe the brows of victors and such poets as had influence at court. (_Vide supra._)»
«Let arms give place to civic robes, laurels to paeans.»
«Popularity is the crown of laurel which the world puts on bad art. Whatever is popular is wrong.»
«The strongest poison ever known / Came from Caesar's laurel crown.»
