Custom Maps

Famous quotes containing the words custom and/or maps:

    The husbandman is always a better Greek than the scholar is prepared to appreciate, and the old custom still survives, while antiquarians and scholars grow gray in commemorating it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    And now good morrow to our waking souls,
    Which watch not one another out of fear;
    For love all love of other sights controls,
    And makes one little room an everywhere.
    Let sea-discoverers to new worlds have gone,
    Let maps to other, worlds on worlds have shown,
    Let us possess one world; each hath one, and is one.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
