Famous quotes containing the words main and/or sights:

    Apart from cheese and tulips, the main product of the country is advocaat, a drink made from lawyers.
    Alan Coren (b. 1938)

    We may have civilized bodies and yet barbarous souls. We are blind to the real sights of this world; deaf to its voice; and dead to its death. And not till we know, that one grief outweighs ten thousand joys will we become what Christianity is striving to make us.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
