Red Cross

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or cross:

    Who dreamed that beauty passes like a dream?
    For these red lips, with all their mournful pride,
    Mournful that no new wonder may betide,
    Troy passed away in one high funeral gleam,
    And Usna’s children died.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I’d take off all my clothes
    & cross the damp cold lawn & down the bluff
    into the terrible water & walk forever
    under it out toward the island.
    John Berryman (1914–1972)
