Cut Stone

Famous quotes containing the words cut and/or stone:

    I weathered some merry snow-storms, and spent some cheerful winter evenings by my fireside, while the snow whirled wildly without, and even the hooting of the owl was hushed. For many weeks I met no one in my walks but those who came occasionally to cut wood and sled it to the village.... For human society I was obliged to conjure up the former occupants of these woods.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is of stone.
    A rosy stone that takes
    a glowing tone of softness
    only because behind it the sky is a doubtful, a doubting
    night gray.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
