Path

Famous quotes containing the word path:

    I love to weigh, to settle, to gravitate toward that which most strongly and rightfully attracts me;Mnot hang by the beam of the scale and try to weigh less,—not suppose a case, but take the case that is; to travel the only path I can, and that on which no power can resist me. It affords me no satisfaction to commence to spring an arch before I have got a solid foundation.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Not once or twice in our rough island-story
    The path of booty was the way to glory.
    Anonymous.

    In the path of an action merely typical
    To create the universal, originate a symbol
    Out of the impact?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
