King City Maple

Famous quotes containing the words king, city and/or maple:

    I am as unfit for any practical purpose—I mean for the furtherance of the world’s ends—as gossamer for ship-timber; and I, who am going to be a pencil-maker to-morrow, can sympathize with God Apollo, who served King Admetus for a while on earth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The City is of Night; perchance of Death,
    But certainly of Night; for never there
    Can come the lucid morning’s fragrant breath
    After the dewy dawning’s cold grey air;
    James Thomson (1834–1882)

    Her teacher’s certainty it must be Mabel
    Made Maple first take notice of her name.
    She asked her father and he told her, “Maple
    Maple is right.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
