Famous quotes containing the word reached:

“When I have reached the shady underground
With but sad hope of coming up again,
I shall implore your ghost to hover round
And guide me to a land of lucky men....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“A fiancé is neither this nor that: he’s left one shore, but not yet reached the other.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“John Brown and Giuseppe Garibaldi were contemporaries not solely in the matter of time; their endeavors as liberators link their names where other likeness is absent; and the peaks of their careers were reached almost simultaneously: the Harper’s Ferry Raid occurred in 1859, the raid on Sicily in the following year. Both events, however differing in character, were equally quixotic.”
—John Cournos (1881–1956)
