South Lowell

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or lowell:

    The South is very beautiful but its beauty makes one sad because the lives that people live here, and have lived here, are so ugly.

    “There is Lowell, who’s striving Parnassus to climb
    With a whole bale of isms tied together with rhyme,
    He might get on alone, spite of brambles and boulders,
    But he can’t with that bundle he has on his shoulders,
    The top of the hill he will ne’er come nigh reaching
    Till he learns the distinction ‘twixt singing and preaching;
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
