Road Crossing

Famous quotes containing the words road and/or crossing:

    Evil can be got very easily and exists in quantity: the road to her is very smooth, and she lives near by. But between us and virtue the gods have placed the sweat of our brows; the road to her is long and steep, and it is rough at first; but when a man has reached the top, then she is easy to attain, although before she was hard.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    Bodhidharma sailing the Yangtze on a reed
    Lenin in a sealed train through Germany
    Hsuan Tsang, crossing the Pamirs
    Joseph, Crazy Horse, living the last free
    starving high-country winter of their tribes.
    Surrender into freedom revolt into slavery—
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
