Pure Stocks

Famous quotes containing the words pure and/or stocks:

    The pure serene of memory in one man,—
    A ripple widening from a single stone
    Winding around the waters of the world.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    In that sweet mood when pleasure loves to pay
    Tribute to ease; and, of its joy secure,
    The heart luxuriates with indifferent things,
    Wasting its kindliness on stocks and stones,
    And on the vacant air.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
