Suny Stony Brook

Famous quotes containing the words stony and/or brook:

    And that enquiring man John Synge comes next,
    That dying chose the living world for text
    And never could have rested in the tomb
    But that, long travelling, he had come
    Towards nightfall upon certain set apart
    In a most desolate stony place....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    A brook that was the water of the house,
    Cold as a spring as yet so near its source,
    Too lofty and original to rage.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
