Greater East

Famous quotes containing the words greater and/or east:

    Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other’s eyes for an instant? We should live in all the ages of the world in an hour; ay, in all the worlds of the ages. History, Poetry, Mythology!—I know of no reading of another’s experience so startling and informing as this would be.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Sublime tobacco! which from east to west
    Cheers the tar’s labour or the Turkman’s rest.
