Famous quotes containing the words home and/or circuit:
“You must ascend a mountain to learn your relation to matter, and so to your own body, for it is at home there, though you are not.”

“Within the circuit of this plodding life
There enter moments of an azure hue,
Untarnished fair as is the violet
Or anemone, when the spring strews them
By some meandering rivulet, which make
The best philosophy untrue that aims
But to console man for his grievances.
I have remembered when the winter came,”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
