Rock Steady

Famous quotes containing the words rock and/or steady:

    Don’t say, don’t say there is no water

    What do we mean by patriotism in the context of our times? I venture to suggest that what we mean is a sense of national responsibility ... a patriotism which is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.
