Road Stone Arch

Famous quotes containing the words road, stone and/or arch:

    As life runs on, the road grows strange
    With faces new,—and near the end
    The milestones into headstones change,
    ‘Neath every one a friend.
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    She took you the way a woman takes
    a bargain dress off the rack
    and I broke the way a stone breaks.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Dark accurate plunger down the successive knell
    Of arch on arch, where ogives burst a red
    Reverberance of hail upon the dead
    Thunder like an exploding crucible!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
