Famous quotes containing the words merry, hill, shopping and/or centre:
“For the good are always the merry,
Save by an evil chance,
And the merry love the fiddle,
And the merry love to dance....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“One hill will not hold two tigers.”

“Children’s liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (b. 1939)
“Freedom to think our own thoughts, freedom to utter them, freedom to live out the promptings of our inner life ultimated in this convention, was termed a monstrosity of the 19th century. What was it?—the legitimate out-birth of the eternal law of progress. This reformation underlies every other; it is the only healthful centre around which hope of humanity can revolve.”
—Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)
