Famous quotes containing the words leaning and/or tower:
“he dreadful darts
With rapid glide along the leaning line;
And, fixing in the wretch his cruel fangs”

“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)
