Famous quotes containing the words hot, mainstream and/or rock:
“But the hot hell that always in him burns,
Though in mid Heaven, soon ended his delight,

Fierce hate he recollects, and all his thoughts
Of mischief, gratulating, thus excites:”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“You have constantly urged the idea that you were persecuted because you did not come from West-Point, and you repeat it in these letters. This, my dear general, is I fear, the rock on which you have split.”
