Famous quotes containing the words perfect and/or interval:
“There stood the purple spires with no breath of air
Nor headlong bee
To disturb their perfect poise the livelong day
Neath the alder tree.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“I was interested to see how a pioneer lived on this side of the country. His life is in some respects more adventurous than that of his brother in the West; for he contends with winter as well as the wilderness, and there is a greater interval of time at least between him and the army which is to follow. Here immigration is a tide which may ebb when it has swept away the pines; there it is not a tide, but an inundation, and roads and other improvements come steadily rushing after.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
