Famous quotes containing the word eastern:
“The grey-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,
Checkering the eastern clouds with streaks of light.”

As Eastern Summers are,
Must now, forsaking Time and Flesh,
Add light to some small Star.”

“From this elevation, just on the skirts of the clouds, we could overlook the country, west and south, for a hundred miles. There it was, the State of Maine, which we had seen on the map, but not much like that,—immeasurable forest for the sun to shine on, the eastern stuff we hear of in Massachusetts. No clearing, no house. It did not look as if a solitary traveler had cut so much as a walking-stick there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
