Big Stone Gap

Famous quotes containing the words big, stone and/or gap:

    Whale on the beach, you dinosaur,
    what brought you smoothing into this dead harbor?
    If you’d stayed inside you could have grown
    as big as the Empire State.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I passed a tomb among green shades
    Where seven anemones with down-dropped heads
    Wept tears of dew upon the stone beneath.
    —Unknown. The Thousand and One Nights.

    AWP. Anthology of World Poetry, An. Mark Van Doren, ed. (Rev. and enl. Ed., 1936)

    I peer eagerly into every gap in a fence of a zipper.
