Rock Rose

Famous quotes containing the words rock and/or rose:

    Under that rock that holds
    the first swift kiss
    of the spring-sun’s white, incandescent breath,
    I’d seek
    you flowers.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    By intervening in the Vietnamese struggle the United States was attempting to fit its global strategies into a world of hillocks and hamlets, to reduce its majestic concerns for the containment of communism and the security of the Free World to a dimension where governments rose and fell as a result of arguments between two colonels’ wives.
    Frances Fitzgerald (b. 1940)
