Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, wine and/or towns:

    “A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Lovers, forget your love,
    And list to the love of these,
    She a window flower,
    And he a winter breeze.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Pull down the blinds, bring fiddle and clarionet
    That there be no foot silent in the room
    Nor mouth from kissing, nor from wine unwet;
    Our Father Rosicross is in his tomb.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The improved American highway system ... isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway ... he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson’s nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
