Famous quotes containing the words broad, street and/or station:

    “Heavily hangs the broad sunflower
    Over its grave i’ the earth so chilly;
    Heavily hangs the hollyhock,
    Heavily hangs the tiger-lily.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “Think of admitting the details of a single case of the criminal court into our thoughts, to stalk profanely through their very sanctum sanctorum for an hour, ay, for many hours! to make a very barroom of the mind’s inmost apartment, as if for so long the dust of the street had occupied us,—the very street itself, with all its travel, its bustle, and filth, had passed through our thoughts’ shrine! Would it not be an intellectual and moral suicide?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Say first, of God above, or Man below,
    What can we reason, but from what we know?
    Of Man what see we, but his station here,
    From which to reason, or to which refer?
    Thro’ worlds unnumber’d tho’ the God be known,
    ‘Tis ours to trace him only in our own.
    ”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
