Excel Township

Famous quotes containing the words excel and/or township:

“There are portraits and still-lifes
And the first, because ‘human’
Does not excel the second,”
—Charles Tomlinson (b. 1927)

“A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
