Stone

Famous quotes containing the word stone:

    “The subject of the novel is reality liberated from soul. The reader in complete independence presented with a structured process: let him evaluate it, not the author. The façade of the novel cannot be other than stone or steel, flashing electrically or dark, but silent.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    “The stone often recoils on the head of the thrower.”
    —Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    “Let the space under the first storey be dark, let the water
    lap the stone posts, and vivid green slime glimmer
    upon them; let a boat be kept there.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
