Morgan Hill

Famous quotes containing the words morgan and/or hill:

    On like the wind they hurried, and Morgan rode in advance;
    Bright were his eyes like live coals, as he gave me a sideways
    glance;
    And I was just breathing freely, after my choking pain,
    When the last one of the troopers suddenly drew his rein.
    Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)

    The longer a woman remains single, the more apprehensive she will be of entering into the state of wedlock. At seventeen or eighteen, a girl will plunge into it, sometimes without either fear or wit; at twenty, she will begin to think; at twenty-four, will weigh and discriminate; at twenty-eight, will be afraid of venturing; at thirty, will turn about, and look down the hill she has ascended, and sometimes rejoice, sometimes repent, that she has gained that summit sola.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
