Famous quotes containing the words home, runs and/or hit:

    “Our instructed vagrancy, which has hardly time to linger by the hedgerows, but runs away early to the tropics, and is at home with palms and banyans—which is nourished on books of travel, and stretches the theatre of its imagination to the Zambesi.”

    “And his wish is intimacy,
    Intimater intimacy,
    And a stricter privacy;
    The impossible shall yet be done,
    And, being two, shall still be one.

    So lovers melt their sundered selves,
    Yet melted would be twain.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “And then a Plank in Reason, broke,
    And I dropped down, and down—
    And hit a World, at every plunge,
    And Finished knowing—then—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
