Famous quotes containing the words chief and/or township:
“My chief humor is for a tyrant. I could play Ercles rarely, or a part to tear a cat in, to make all split.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
