Cross Cross

Famous quotes containing the word cross:

    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)

    She remembered home as a place where there were always too many children, a cross man and work piling up around a sick woman.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
