Famous quotes containing the words cried out, rock and/or cried:
“Cried out the whole night long,
Crying amid the glittering sea,
Naming it with ecstatic breath,
Because it had such dignity,
By the sweet name of Death.”

to solace the dryness at our hearts.
I have seen
the fountain springing out of the rock wall
and you drinking there.”

“A taxidermist stuffed a bear with such brio that he cried aloud “I love it!” A passing goddess, imperfectly understanding, but wishing to be responsive, kindly brought the beast to life. It consumed the artisan forthwith. Moral: Say what you mean.”
