Sky Bound

Famous quotes containing the words sky and/or bound:

    “Tried by a New England eye, or the more practical wisdom of modern times, they are the oracles of a race already in its dotage; but held up to the sky, which is the only impartial and incorruptible ordeal, they are of a piece with its depth and serenity, and I am assured that they will have a place and significance as long as there is a sky to test them by.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “In the word of no master am I bound to believe.”
    —Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
