Famous quotes containing the words cross and/or green:

    He is asleep. He knows no longer the fatigue of the work of deciding, the work to finish. He sleeps, he has no longer to strain, to force himself, to require of himself that which he cannot do. He no longer bears the cross of that interior life which proscribes rest, distraction, weaknesshe sleeps and thinks no longer, he has no more duties or chores, no, no, and I, old and tired, oh! I envy that he sleeps and will soon die.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    It was a green world,
    Unchanging holly with the curled
    Points, cypress and conifers,
    All that through the winter bears
    Coarsened fertility against the frost.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
