Famous quotes containing the words partially and/or towers:

    “I remember once dreaming of pushing a canoe up the rivers of Maine, and that, when I had got so high that the channels were dry, I kept on through the ravines and gorges, nearly as well as before, by pushing a little harder, and now it seemed to me that my dream was partially realized.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Was this the face that launch’d a thousand ships,
    And burnt the topless towers of Ilium?”
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
