Ancient Reef

Famous quotes containing the words ancient and/or reef:

    No one would know except for ancient maps
    That such a brook ran water. But I wonder
    If from its being kept forever under,
    The thoughts may not have risen that so keep
    This new-built city from both work and sleep.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Striking his former happiness against the reef of justice he has perished unwept for and unseen.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
