Native Heart

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or heart:

    “The Iliad represents no creed nor opinion, and we read it with a rare sense of freedom and irresponsibility, as if we trod on native ground, and were autochthones of the soil.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “So, we’ll go no more a-roving
    So late into the night,
    Though the heart be still as loving,
    And the moon be still as bright.
    For the sword outwears its sheath,
    And the soul wears out the breast.
    And the heart must pause to breathe
    And love itself have rest.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
