Famous quotes containing the words rock and/or ferry:

    Under that rock that holds
    the first swift kiss
    of the spring-sun’s white, incandescent breath,
    I’d seek
    you flowers.

    And my eyes are blue;
    So ferry me across the water,
    Do, boatman, do!”

    “Step into my ferry-boat,
    Be they black or blue,
