Front

Famous quotes containing the word front:

“You did not expect to find such spruce trees in the wild woods, but they evidently attend to their toilets each morning even there. Through such a front yard did we enter that wilderness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Carry hate
In front of you and harmony behind.
Be deaf to music and to beauty blind.
Win war. Rise bloody, maybe not too late
For having first to civilize a space
Wherein to play your violin with grace.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“my face I don’t mind it,
Because I’m behind it—
‘Tis the folks in the front that I jar.”
—Anthony Euwer (1877–1955)
