Standing Rock

Famous quotes containing the words standing and/or rock:

    “We all have known
    Good critics, who have stamped out poet’s hopes;
    Good statesmen, who pulled ruin on the state;
    Good patriots, who, for a theory, risked a cause;
    Good kings, who disembowelled for a tax;
    Good Popes, who brought all good to jeopardy;
    Good Christians, who sat still in easy-chairs;
    And damned the general world for standing up.—
    Now, may the good God pardon all good men!”
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    “No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to.”
    —Frank Zappa (1940–1994)
