Side Shaft

Famous quotes containing the words side and/or shaft:

    Don’t be on the side of the angels, it’s too lowering.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Why should not our whole life and its scenery be actually thus fair and distinct? All our lives want a suitable background. They should at least, like the life of the anchorite, be as impressive to behold as objects in a desert, a broken shaft or crumbling mound against a limitless horizon.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
