Famous quotes containing the words town and/or pound:

    “A little instruction in the elements of chartography—a little practice in the use of the compass and the spirit level, a topographical map of the town common, an excursion with a road map—would have given me a fat round earth in place of my paper ghost.”
    —Mary Antin (1881–1949)

    “Oh we drunk his “Hale” in the good red wine
    When we last made company,
    No capon priest was the Goodly Fere
    But a man o’ men was he.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
