Moon Rocks

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or rocks:

    “And then we’ll sit
    in the shadowy spruce and
    pick the bones
    of careless mice,
    while the long moon drifts
    toward Asia”
    —John Haines (b. 1924)

    “If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger. I should not seem a part of it.... My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath—a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff—he’s always, always in my mind—not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself—but as my own being.”
    —Emily Brontë (1818–1848)
