Black Brook Village

Famous quotes containing the words black, brook and/or village:

    I only know that a rook
    Ordering its black feathers can so shine
    As to seize me senses, haul
    My eyelids up, and grant

    A brief respite from fear

    And below roared a brook hidden in trees,
    The sound of which was silence for the place.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    With five to ten hundred pure-minded young women threading the streets of the village every evening unattended, vice must slink away, like frost before the rising sun ...
    Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
