Famous quotes containing the words single and/or distances:
“Ever fresh the broad creation,
A divine improvisation,
From the heart of God proceeds,
A single will, a million deeds.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“We then entered another swamp, at a necessarily slow pace, where the walking was worse than ever, not only on account of the water, but the fallen timber, which often obliterated the indistinct trail entirely. The fallen trees were so numerous, that for long distances the route was through a succession of small yards, where we climbed over fences as high as our heads, down into water often up to our knees, and then over another fence into a second yard, and so on.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
