Famous quotes containing the words ground and/or roller:

    The future is just as much a condition of the present as is the past. “What shall be and must be is the ground of that which is.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    And thus Snow White became the prince’s bride.
    The wicked queen was invited to the wedding feast
    and when she arrived there were
    red-hot iron shoes,
    in the manner of red-hot roller skates,
    clamped upon her feet.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
