Stones

Famous quotes containing the word stones:

    As the builders say, the larger stones do not lie well without the lesser.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    Prisons are built with stones of law, brothels with bricks of religion.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    The real pleasure of being Mick Jagger was in having everything but being tempted by nothing ... a smouldering ill will which silk clothes, fine food, wine, women, and every conceivable physical pampering somehow aggravated ... a drained and languorous, exquisitely photogenic ennui.
    —Anonymous “Chronicler.” Quoted in Philip Norman, The Life and Good Times of the Rolling Stones (1989)
