Famous quotes containing the words neck and/or township:
“And graven with diamonds in letters plain
There is written her fair neck round about:
Noli me tangere for Caesars I am,
And wild for to hold though I seem tame.”
—Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?1542)
“The most interesting thing which I heard of, in this township of Hull, was an unfailing spring, whose locality was pointed out to me on the side of a distant hill, as I was panting along the shore, though I did not visit it. Perhaps, if I should go through Rome, it would be some spring on the Capitoline Hill I should remember the longest.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
