Famous quotes containing the words edge and/or length:
“In a coign of the cliff between lowland and highland,
At the sea-down’s edge between windward and lee,
Walled round with rocks as an inland island,
The ghost of a garden fronts the sea.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
“At length upon the lone Chorasmian shore
He paused, a wide and melancholy waste
Of putrid marshes.”
