Famous quotes containing the words norris and/or ferry:
“We don’t need to connect. The prairie landscape isolates us from each other as well as from our history.”
—Kathleen Norris (b. 1947)
“John Brown and Giuseppe Garibaldi were contemporaries not solely in the matter of time; their endeavors as liberators link their names where other likeness is absent; and the peaks of their careers were reached almost simultaneously: the Harper’s Ferry Raid occurred in 1859, the raid on Sicily in the following year. Both events, however differing in character, were equally quixotic.”
—John Cournos (1881–1956)
