Bare Rocks

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or rocks:

    Some burn damp faggots, others may consume
    The entire combustible world in one small room
    As though dried straw, and if we turn about
    The bare chimney is gone black out
    Because the work had finished in that flare.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    There is no pleasing New Englanders, my dear, their soil is all rocks and their hearts are bloodless absolutes.
    John Updike (b. 1932)
