Famous quotes containing the words main and/or sights:

    “But oh, not the hills of Habersham,
    And oh, not the valleys of Hall
    Avail: I am fain for to water the plain.
    Downward, the voices of Duty call—
    Downward, to toil and be mixed with the main,
    The dry fields burn, and the mills are to turn,
    And a myriad flowers mortally yearn,
    And the lordly main from beyond the plain
    Calls o’er the hills of Habersham,
    Calls through the valleys of Hall.”
    —Sidney Lanier (1842–1881)

    “We can’t always have the beautiful aspect of things. Let us make the most of our sights that are beautiful and let the others go”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
