Bearing Block

Famous quotes containing the words bearing and/or block:

    Rosenbloom is dead.
    The tread of the carriers does not halt
    On the hill, but turns
    Up the sky.
    They are bearing his body into the sky.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
    Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
    Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
    All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
    All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
    Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.
    Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)
