Miles

Famous quotes containing the word miles:

    Five miles meandering with a mazy motion
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    For these are moments only, moments of insight,
    And there are reaches to be attained,
    A last level of anxiety that melts
    In becoming, like miles under the pilgrim’s feet.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellows. The really diligent student in one of the crowded hives of Cambridge College is as solitary as a dervis in the desert.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
