Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:

    “On a starred night Prince Lucifer uprose,
    Tired of his dark dominion, swung the fiend
    Above the rolling ball in cloud part screened,”
    —George Meredith (1828–1909)

    “All that stock of arguments [the skeptics] produce to depreciate our faculties, and make mankind appear ignorant and low, are drawn principally from this head, to wit, that we are under an invincible blindness as to the true and real nature of things.”
    —George Berkeley (1685–1753)
