Mile Trail

Famous quotes containing the words mile and/or trail:

    “May they stumble, stage by stage
    On an endless pilgrimage,
    Dawn and dusk, mile after mile,
    At each and every step, a stile;”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “Perhaps of all our untamed quadrupeds, the fox has obtained the widest and most familiar reputation.... His recent tracks still give variety to a winter’s walk. I tread in the steps of the fox that has gone before me by some hours, or which perhaps I have started, with such a tip-toe of expectation as if I were on the trail of the Spirit itself which resides in the wood, and expected soon to catch it in its lair.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
