Additional quotes by Nathalia Crane

Great is the rose That challenges the crypt, And quotes milleniums Against the grave.

The rose has told
In one simplicity
That never life
Relinquishes a bloom
But to bestow
An ancient confidence.

You cannot choose your battlefield,
God does that for you;
But you can plant a standard
Where a standard never flew. <small> QOTD 2007·11·01 Sound file </small>
