Famous quotes containing the words carthage and/or alternate:

    To Carthage then I came
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Germany is a queer country: one can’t regard it dispassionately. I alternate between hating it thoroughly, stick, stock and stone, and yearning over it fit to break my heart. I can’t help feeling it a young and adorable country—adolescent—with the faults of adolescence.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
