Famous quotes containing the words european and/or route:

    “No European spring had shown him the same intermixture of delicate grace and passionate depravity that marked the Maryland May.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “By a route obscure and lonely,
    Haunted by ill angels only,
    Where an eidolon, named Night,
    On a black throne reigns upright,
    I have reached these lands but newly
    From an ultimate dim Thule—
    From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
    Out of space—out of time.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
