Reaching Number

Famous quotes containing the words reaching and/or number:

    And the ambitious vine
    Crowns with his purple mass
    The cedar reaching high
    To kiss the sky,
    The cypress, pine,
    And useful sassafras.

    Civilization is maintained by a very few people in a small number of places and we need only some bombs and a few prisons to blot it out altogether.
