Eurasian Rock Pipit

Famous quotes containing the words eurasian and/or rock:

    In economics, we borrowed from the Bourbons; in foreign policy, we drew on themes fashioned by the nomad warriors of the Eurasian steppes. In spiritual matters, we emulated the braying intolerance of our archenemies, the Shi’ite fundamentalists.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    each rock a word
    a creek-washed stone
    Granite: ingrained
    with torment of fire and weight
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
