Famous quotes containing the words spring, city and/or road:
“I love to weigh, to settle, to gravitate toward that which most strongly and rightfully attracts me;Mnot hang by the beam of the scale and try to weigh less,not suppose a case, but take the case that is; to travel the only path I can, and that on which no power can resist me. It affords me no satisfaction to commence to spring an arch before I have got a solid foundation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)

But certainly of Night; for never there
Can come the lucid mornings fragrant breath
After the dewy dawnings cold grey air;”
