Famous quotes containing the words rock and/or springs:

    “Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
    Smiles awake you when you rise.
    Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
    And I will sing a lullaby:
    Rock them, rock them, lullaby.”
    —Thomas Dekker (1572?–1632?)

    “In short, as a snow-drift is formed where there is a lull in the wind, so, one would say, where there is a lull of truth, an institution springs up. But the truth blows right on over it, nevertheless, and at length blows it down.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
