Famous quotes containing the words shared and/or country:
“Let us pardon him his hope of a vain apocalypse, and of a second coming in great triumph upon the clouds of heaven. Perhaps these were the errors of others rather than his own; and if it be true that he himself shared the general illusion, what matters it, since his dream rendered him strong against death, and sustained him in a struggle to which he might otherwise have been unequal?”
—Ernest Renan (1823–1892)
“Four or five whippoorwills
Have come down from their native ledge
To the open country edge
To give us a piece of their bills.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
