Famous quotes with Grassy

  • The world has become one big grassy knoll, crawling with lone gunmen who think they're the Warren Commission.
    Ken MacLeod
  • No monster vibration, no snake universe hallucinations. Many tiny jeweled violet flowers along the path of a living brook that looked like Blake's illustration for a canal in grassy Eden: huge Pacific watery shore, Orlovsky dancing naked like Shiva long-haired before giant green waves, titanic cliffs that Wordsworth mentioned in his own Sublime, great yellow sun veiled with mist hanging over the planet's oceanic horizon. No harm.
    Allen Ginsberg
  • John F. Kennedy … murdered in Dallas by some hapless geek named Oswald who worked for either Castro, the mob, Jimmy Hoffa, the CIA, his dominatrix landlady or the odious, degenerate FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover. The list is long and crazy — maybe Marilyn Monroe's first husband fired those shots from the grassy knoll. Who knows? A whole generation of American journalists is still embarrassed by their failure to answer that question. JFK's ghost will haunt the corridors of power in America for as long as the grass is green and the rivers run to the sea. Take my word for it, Bubba. I have heard his footsteps for 30 years and I still feel guilty about not being able to explain the biggest news story of my lifetime to my son.
    Hunter S. Thompson
  • It was June, and the world smelled of roses. The sunshine was like powdered gold over the grassy hillside.
    Maud Hart Lovelace
  • I saw for a blazing moment The great grassy world from both sides, Man and beast in the round of their need.
    James Dickey
