Famous quotes containing the word search:

    Gaily bedight,
    A gallant knight,
    In sunshine and in shadow,
    Had journeyed long,
    Singing a song,
    In search of Eldorado.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Adolescents are travelers, far from home with no native land, neither children nor adults. They are jet-setters who fly from one country to another with amazing speed. Sometimes they are four years old, an hour later they are twenty-five. They don’t really fit anywhere. There’s a yearning for place, a search for solid ground.
    Mary Pipher (20th century)

    On short, still days
    At the shut of the year
    We search the pathways
    Where the coverts were.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
