Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or village:

    “In a coign of the cliff between lowland and highland,
    At the sea-down’s edge between windward and lee,
    Walled round with rocks as an inland island,
    The ghost of a garden fronts the sea.”
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)

    “Tom was a glittering hero once more—the pet of the old, the envy of the young. His name even went into immortal print, for the village paper magnified him. There were some that believed he would be President, yet, if he escaped hanging.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
