Cross Cross

Famous quotes containing the word cross:

    There is a mountain in the distant West
    That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
    Displays a cross of snow upon its side.
    Such is the cross I wear upon my breast
    These eighteen years, through all the changing scenes
    And seasons, changeless since the day she died.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
