Famous quotes containing the words nearby and/or landmarks:

    ... runs off
    three-leggèd, scared,
    but tarries nearby and will
    return. A friend.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The lives of happy people are dense with their own doings—crowded, active, thick.... But the sorrowing are nomads, on a plain with few landmarks and no boundaries; sorrow’s horizons are vague and its demands are few.
    Larry McMurtry (b. 1936)
