Famous quotes containing the words high, hoe and/or road:

    “These high wild hills and rough uneven ways
    Draws out our miles and makes them wearisome.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Mine was, as it were, the connecting link between wild and cultivated fields; as some states are civilized, and others half-civilized, and others savage or barbarous, so my field was, though not in a bad sense, a half-cultivated field. They were beans cheerfully returning to their wild and primitive state that I cultivated, and my hoe played the Ranz des Vaches for them.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “By the road to the contagious hospital
    under the surge of the blue
    mottled clouds driven from the
    northwest—a cold wind.”
