Rocks

Famous quotes containing the word rocks:

    But square-cut or pear-shape, these rocks don’t lose their shape!

    There is no pleasing New Englanders, my dear, their soil is all rocks and their hearts are bloodless absolutes.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    We envy not the warmer clime, that lies
    In ten degrees of more indulgent skies,
    Nor at the coarseness of our heaven repine,
    Though o’er our heads the frozen Pleiads shine:
    ‘Tis Liberty that crowns Britannia’s Isle,
    And makes her barren rocks and her bleak mountains smile.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
