Famous quotes containing the words turning and/or north:
“‘A parted ev’n just between twelve and one, ev’n at the
turning o’ the tide; for after I saw him fumble with the
sheets, and play with flowers, and smile upon his finger’s
end, I knew there was but one way; for his nose was as sharp as
pen, and ‘a babbled of green fields.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We have heard all of our lives how, after the Civil War was over, the South went back to straighten itself out and make a living again. It was for many years a voiceless part of the government. The balance of power moved away from it—to the north and the east. The problems of the north and the east became the big problem of the country and nobody paid much attention to the economic unbalance the South had left as its only choice.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
