Famous quotes containing the word west:

    “The very nursery tales of this generation were the nursery tales of primeval races. They migrate from east to west, and again from west to east; now expanded into the “tale divine” of bards, now shrunk into a popular rhyme.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
