Famous quotes containing the words coming, stone and/or roses:
“With these I would be.
And with water: the waves coming forward, without cessation,
The waves, altered by sand-bars, beds of kelp, miscellaneous
driftwood,
Topped by cross-winds, tugged at by sinuous undercurrents
The tide rustling in, sliding between the ridges of stone,
The tongues of water, creeping in, quietly.”
—Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
“I have no more cheap morals to draw from all this death.”
—Judith Rascoe, U.S. screenwriter, Robert Stone (b. 1939)
“Keep not your roses for my dead, cold brow
The way is lonely, let me feel them now.”
—Arabella Smith (1844–1916)
