Home State

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or state:

    Wild air, world-mothering air,
    Nestling me everywhere,
    That each eyelash or hair
    Girdles; goes home betwixt
    The fleeciest, frailest-fixed
    Snowflake; that’s fairly mixed
    With, riddles, and is rife
    In every least thing’s life.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    What thou art is mine;
    Our state cannot be severed, we are one,
    One flesh; to lose thee were to lose myself.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
