Named Edwin Markham

Famous quotes containing the words named, edwin and/or markham:

    “who should moor at his edge
    And fare on afoot would find gates of no gardens,
    But the hill of dark underfoot diving,
    Closing overhead, the cold deep, and drowning.
    He is called Leviathan, and named for rolling,”
    —William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)

    “A good soul like a good body should be as unobtrusive as possible; in so far as it functions properly, it should not be noticed for good or for ill.”
    —C.E.M. (Cyril Edwin Mitchinson)

    “Sprung from the West,
    He drank the valorous youth of a new world.
    The strength of virgin forests braced his mind,
    The hush of spacious prairies stilled his soul.
    His words were oaks in acorns; and his thoughts
    Were roots that firmly gript the granite truth.”
    —Edwin Markham (1852–1940)
