Famous quotes containing the words east and/or west:

    The very nursery tales of this generation were the nursery tales of primeval races. They migrate from east to west, and again from west to east; now expanded into the “tale divine” of bards, now shrunk into a popular rhyme.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... there has never been a period in history when there have been necessary killings which has not been instantly followed by a period when there have been unnecessary killings.
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
