Cross Cross

Famous quotes containing the word cross:

    But soft, behold! lo where it comes again!
    I’ll cross it though it blast me. Stay, illusion!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Although its growth may seem to have been slow, it is to be remembered that it is not a shrub, or plant, to shoot up in the summer and wither in the frosts. The Red Cross is a part of us—it has come to stay—and like the sturdy oak, its spreading branches shall yet encompass and shelter the relief of the nation.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)
