Famous quotes containing the words south and/or heaton:

    Returned this day, the south wind searches,
    And finds young pines and budding birches;
    But finds not the budding man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The spectacle of misery grew in its crushing volume. There seemed to be no end to the houses full of hunted starved children. Children with dysentery, children with scurvy, children at every stage of starvation.... We learned to know that the barometer of starvation was the number of children deserted in any community.
    —Mary Heaton Vorse (1874–1966)
