Joined City Country

Famous quotes containing the words joined, city and/or country:

    [W]hat I mean by love ... is this. A sympathetic liking—excited by fancy, directed by judgment—and to which is joined also a most sincere desire of the good and happiness of its object.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    Lo! Death has reared himself a throne
    In a strange city lying alone
    Far down within the dim West,
    Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
    Have gone to their eternal rest.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    It was worth the while to lie down in a country where you could afford such great fires; that was one whole side, and the bright side, of our world.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
