Lost Woods

Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or woods:

    The fate of the poor shepherd, who, blinded and lost in the snow-storm, perishes in a drift within a few feet of his cottage door, is an emblem of the state of man. On the brink of the waters of life and truth, we are miserably dying.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The autumnal change of our woods has not yet made a deep impression on our own literature yet. October has hardly tinged our poetry.
