Famous quotes containing the words central and/or lowlands:

    For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    In the lowlands I have no comrade, not even the lone man’s friend—
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
