Stone Jars

Famous quotes containing the words stone and/or jars:

“Ye could not know where lies a thing so fair,
No stone is there to show, no tongue to say,
What was; no dirge, except the hollow sea’s,
Mourns o’er the beauty of the Cyclades.”

“Till the Spinner of the Years
Said “Now!” And each one hears,
And consummation comes, and jars two hemispheres.”
