Indian Painted Rocks

Famous quotes containing the words indian, painted and/or rocks:

    According to my observation, a batteau, properly manned, shoots rapids as a matter of course, which a single Indian with a canoe carries round.

    When the painted birds laugh in the shade,
    When our table with cherries and nuts is spread:
    Come live, and be merry, and join with me
    To sing the sweet chorus of ‘Ha, ha, he!’
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    Another time I go outside
    Into the world. It rocks on and on.
    It was rocking before I saw it
    And is presumably doing so still.
