Famous quotes containing the words high and/or purity:
“It is not their bones or hide or tallow that I love most. It is the living spirit of the tree, not its spirit of turpentine, with which I sympathize, and which heals my cuts. It is as immortal as I am, and perchance will go to as high a heaven, there to tower above me still.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The purity men love is like the mists which envelop the earth, and not like the azure ether beyond.”
