Left Primitive

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or primitive:

    What’s left to sigh for,
    Strange night has come;
    God’s love has hidden him
    Out of all harm,
    Pleasure has made him
    Weak as a worm.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
