Famous quotes containing the words toll, roads, serve and/or development:

    one is in a shoe factory cursing the machine,
    one is at the aquarium tending a seal,
    one is dull at the wheel of her Ford,
    one is at the toll gate collecting,
    one is tying the cord of a calf in Arizona,
    one is straddling a cello in Russia....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    ... deeper
    and deeper into Imagination’s
    holy forest, as travelers
    followed the Zohar’s dusty
    shimmering roads ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    To rescue from oblivion even a fragment of a language which men have used and which is in danger of being lost—that is to say, one of the elements, whether good or bad, which have shaped and complicated civilization—is to extend the scope of social observation and to serve civilization.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    The highest form of development is to govern one’s self.
    Zerelda G. Wallace (1817–1901)
