Rope Mill Road

Famous quotes containing the words rope, mill and/or road:

    Mankind is a rope tied between beast and superman—a rope over an abyss.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    —First a shiver, and then a thrill,
    Then something decidedly like a spill,—
    And the parson was sitting up on a rock,
    At half-past nine by the meet’n’-house clock,—
    Just the hour of the Earthquake shock!
    MWhat do you think the parson found,
    When he got up and stared around?
    The poor old chaise in a heap or mound,
    As if it had been to the mill and ground!
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.
    —J.R.R. (John Ronald Revel)
