Black Rock City

Famous quotes containing the words black, rock and/or city:

    Thou turn’st my eyes into my very soul,
    And there I see such black and grained spots
    As will not leave their tinct.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Here is no water but only rock
    Rock and no water and the sandy road
    The road winding above among the mountains
    Which are mountains of rock without water
    If there were water we should stop and drink
    Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Overcome the Empyrean; hurl
    Heaven and Earth out of their places,
    That in the same calamity
    Brother and brother, friend and friend,
    Family and family,
    City and city may contend.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
