Famous quotes containing the words lines and/or stations:

    There they lived on, those New England people, farmer lives, father and grandfather and great-grandfather, on and on without noise, keeping up tradition, and expecting, beside fair weather and abundant harvests, we did not learn what. They were contented to live, since it was so contrived for them, and where their lines had fallen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The only road to the highest stations in this country is that of the law.
    William Jones (1746–1794)
