Famous quotes containing the words west and/or side:
“I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.”

“But how do the poor minority fare? Perhaps it will be found that just in proportion as some have been placed in outward circumstances above the savage, others have been degraded below him. The luxury of one class is counterbalanced by the indigence of another. On the one side is the palace, on the other are the almshouse and “silent poor.””
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
