Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or village:
“To be seventy years old is like climbing the Alps.

Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18071882)
“To fair Fideles grassy tomb
Soft maids and village hinds shall bring
Each opening sweet of earliest bloom,
And rifle all the breathing spring.”
