White Stone Marked

Famous quotes containing the words white, stone and/or marked:

    His thoughts, delivered to me
    From the white coverlet and pillow,
    I see now, were inheritances—
    Delicate riders of the storm.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    It is of stone.
    A rosy stone that takes
    a glowing tone of softness
    only because behind it the sky is a doubtful, a doubting
    night gray.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    For the most part, the town has deserved the name it wears. I find our annals marked with a uniform good sense. I find no ridiculous laws, no eavesdropping legislators, no hanging of witches, no whipping of Quakers, no unnatural crimes.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
