Large Road

Famous quotes containing the words large and/or road:

    Despair,
    I don’t like you very well.
    You don’t suit my clothes or my cigarettes.
    Why do you locate here
    as large as a tank,
    aiming at one half of a lifetime?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world. I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
