Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or rocks:
“There is sweet music here that softer falls
Than petals from blown roses on the grass,
Or night-dews on still waters between walls
Of shadowy granite, in a gleaming pass;
Music that gentlier on the spirit lies,
Than tired eyelids upon tired eyes;
Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“There is no pleasing New Englanders, my dear, their soil is all rocks and their hearts are bloodless absolutes.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
