“This album is bigger and more lush than our previous stuff, ... We had the musicality and the ambition and the time to be more lush this time, to make more normal music.”
Wayne Coyne
“To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.”
Helen Keller
“Nothing is so beautiful as spring -- when weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush; Thrush's eggs look little low heavens, and thrush through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring the ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.”
Gerard Manley Hopkins
“TOPE, v. To tipple, booze, swill, soak, guzzle, lush, bib, or swig. In the individual, toping is regarded with disesteem, but toping nations are in the forefront of civilization and power. When pitted against the hard-drinking Christians the absemious Mahometans go down like grass before the scythe. In India one hundred thousand beef- eating and brandy-and-soda guzzling Britons hold in subjection two hundred and fifty million vegetarian abstainers of the same Aryan race. With what an easy grace the whisky-loving American pushed the temperate Spaniard out of his possessions! From the time when the Berserkers ravaged all the coasts of western Europe and lay drunk in every conquered port it has been the same way: everywhere the nations that drink too much are observed to fight rather well and not too righteously. Wherefore the estimable old ladies who abolished the canteen from the American army may justly boast of having materially augmented the nation's military power.”
Ambrose Bierce
“I like to touch things. In my house I have a lot of velvet drapes and thick, lush couches.”
Tom Sizemore
“We knew we wanted to do something with lush leaves and a tropical effect. We didn't think of color at first.”
Fergus Garrett
“My mum calls Gavin Prince Charming and he's just perfect. He's laid back, patient, and he's lush. He's gorgeous and a real sweetheart. It's perfect,”
Gavin Henson
