Valley Grove

Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or grove:

    I will frankly declare, that after passing a few weeks in this valley of the Marquesas, I formed a higher estimate of human nature than I had ever before entertained. But alas! since then I have been one of the crew of a man-of-war, and the pent-up wickedness of five hundred men has nearly overturned all my previous theories.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Bees don’t swarm in a mango grove for nothing.
    Where can you see a wisp of smoke
    without a fire?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
