Spruce Hill Township

Famous quotes containing the words spruce, hill and/or township:

    And then we’ll sit
    in the shadowy spruce and
    pick the bones
    of careless mice,
    while the long moon drifts
    toward Asia
    John Haines (b. 1924)

    One hill will not hold two tigers.
    Chinese proverb.

    The most interesting thing which I heard of, in this township of Hull, was an unfailing spring, whose locality was pointed out to me on the side of a distant hill, as I was panting along the shore, though I did not visit it. Perhaps, if I should go through Rome, it would be some spring on the Capitoline Hill I should remember the longest.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
