Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or cross:
“She liked the blue drapes. They made a star
At the angle. A boy in leather moved in.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Passion is here a soilure of the wits,
We’re told, and Love a cross for them to bear;
Joy shivers in the corner where she knits
And Conscience always has the rocking-chair,
Cheerful as when she tortured into fits
The first cat that was ever killed by Care.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
