Famous quotes containing the words stone and/or ram:

    “Heavy we are, our flesh
    of stone and velvet goes down,
    goes down.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “At one time or another, almost every politician needs an honest man so badly that, like a ravenous wolf, he breaks into a sheep-fold: not to devour the ram he has stolen, however, but rather to conceal himself behind its wooly back.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
