Cold Rocks Hold

Famous quotes containing the words cold, rocks and/or hold:

    To watch that world come up like a cold sun,
    Rewarding others, is my liberty.
    Not to prevent it is my will’s fulfilment.
    Willing it, my ailment.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    As a great buck it powerfully appeared,
    Pushing the crumpled water up ahead,
    And landed pouring like a waterfall,
    And stumbled through the rocks with horny tread,
    And forced the underbrush—and that was all.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    There’s something like a line of gold thread running through a man’s words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself. It’s another thing, though, to hold up that cloth for inspection.
    John Gregory Brown (20th century)
