Famous quotes containing the words broad and/or left:

    “How does Nature deify us with a few and cheap elements! Give me health and a day, and I will make the pomp of emperors ridiculous. The dawn is my Assyria; the sun-set and moon-rise my Paphos, and unimaginable realms of faerie; broad noon shall be my England of the senses and the understanding; the night shall be my Germany of mystic philosophy and dreams.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Cannon to right of them,
    Cannon to left of them,
    Cannon in front of them
    Volleyed and thundered;”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
