Rocks

Famous quotes containing the word rocks:

“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.”

and undisturbed, unbreathing flame,
colorless, sparkless, freely fed on straw,
and, lulled within, a family with pets,
—and looked and looked our infant sight away.”
—Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

“There is no pleasing New Englanders, my dear, their soil is all rocks and their hearts are bloodless absolutes.”
