Surrounding World

Famous quotes containing the words surrounding and/or world:

“Formerly, when lying awake at midnight in those woods, I had listened to hear some words or syllables of their language, but it chanced that I listened in vain until I heard the cry of the loon. I have heard it occasionally on the ponds of my native town, but there its wildness is not enhanced by the surrounding scenery.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The world is a stage, the stage is a world of entertainment.”
—Howard Dietz (1896–1983)
