Coal Brought

Famous quotes containing the words coal and/or brought:

    Coal lay in ledges under the ground since the Flood, until a laborer with pick and windlass brings it to the surface. We may will call it black diamonds. Every basket is power and civilization. For coal is a portable climate.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Since I was not bewitched in adolescence
    And brought to love,
    I will attend to the trees and their gracious silence,
    To winds that move.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
