Swan Hill Road

Famous quotes containing the words swan, hill and/or road:

    “Old age cannot be cured. An epoch or a civilization cannot be prevented from breathing its last. A natural process that happens to all flesh and all human manifestations cannot be arrested. You can only wring your hands and utter a beautiful swan song.”
    —Renee Winegarten (b. 1922)

    “‘O glorious Life, Who dwellest in earth and sun,
    I have lived, I praise and adore Thee.”
    A sword swept.
    Over the pass the voices one by one
    Faded, and the hill slept.”
    —Sir Henry Newbolt (1862–1938)

    “Come mothers and fathers
    Throughout the land
    And don’t criticize
    What you can’t understand
    Your sons and your daughters
    Are beyond your command
    Your old road is rapidly agin’.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
