Famous quotes containing the words rocky, point and/or township:

    These poems, people,
    lost ponies with
    Dragging saddles—
    and rocky sure-foot trails.
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    I have come to a still, but not a deep center,
    A point outside the glittering current;
    My eyes stare at the bottom of a river,
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
