Famous quotes containing the word crevices:
“Men’s hearts are cold. They are indifferent. Not all the coal that is dug warms the world. It remains indifferent to the lives of those who risk their life and health down in the blackness of the earth; who crawl through dark, choking crevices with only a bit of lamp on their caps to light their silent way; whose backs are bent with toil, whose very bones ache, whose happiness is sleep, and whose peace is death.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
“O poplar, you are great
among the hill-stones,
while I perish on the path
among the crevices of the rocks.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
