Morris Town

Famous quotes containing the words morris and/or town:

    Without the Empire we should be tossed like a cork in the cross current of world politics. It is at once our sword and our shield.
    —William Morris Hughes (1864–1952)

    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)
