Famous quotes containing the words fell and/or england:

    The pious ones of Plymouth who, reaching the Rock, first fell upon their own knees and then upon the aborigines.
    William M. Evarts (1818–1901)

    How does Nature deify us with a few and cheap elements! Give me health and a day, and I will make the pomp of emperors ridiculous. The dawn is my Assyria; the sun-set and moon-rise my Paphos, and unimaginable realms of faerie; broad noon shall be my England of the senses and the understanding; the night shall be my Germany of mystic philosophy and dreams.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
