Beat World

Famous quotes containing the words beat and/or world:

“Fit gravefellows you are for Lincoln, Brown
And Douglass and Toussaint. . . all whose rapt eyes
Fashioned a new world in this wilderness.
American earth is richer for your bones;
Our hearts beat prouder for the blood we inherit.”

That wills the natural world but wills us dead.”
