Left Face

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or face:

    The most primitive places left with us are the swamps, where the spruce still grows shaggy with usnea.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Night is a dead monotonous period under a roof; but in the open world it passes lightly, with its stars and dews and perfumes, and the hours are marked by changes in the face of Nature. What seems a kind of temporal death to people choked between walls and curtains, is only a light and living slumber to the man who sleeps afield.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
