Plates Move

Famous quotes containing the words plates and/or move:

    Behold now this vast city; a city of refuge, the mansion house of liberty, encompassed and surrounded with his protection; the shop of war hath not there more anvils and hammers waking, to fashion out the plates and instruments of armed justice in defence of beleaguered truth, than there be pens and hands there, sitting by their studious lamps, musing, searching, revolving new notions.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Rocks crumble, make new forms,
    oceans move the continents,
    mountains rise up and down like ghosts
    yet all is natural, all is change.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
