Famous quotes containing the words north, west and/or shelf:

    “It is the sea that whitens the roof.
    The sea drifts through the winter air.
    It is the sea that the north wind makes.
    The sea is in the falling snow.
    This gloom is the darkness of the sea.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Where there’s more of singing and less of sighing,
    Where there’s more of giving and less of buying,
    And a man makes friends without half trying
    That’s where the West begins.”
    —Arthur Chapman (1873–1935)

    “Books are like imprisoned souls till someone takes them down from a shelf and frees them.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
