Famous quotes containing the words town and/or line:
“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 (18171862)
“A line will take us hours maybe;
Yet if it does not seem a moments thought,
Our stitching and unstitching has been naught.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
