Famous quotes containing the words territories and/or regions:

    “For my part, I feel that with regard to Nature I live a sort of border life, on the confines of a world into which I make occasional and transient forays only, and my patriotism and allegiance to the state into whose territories I seem to retreat are those of a moss-trooper.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “We have wasted our spirit in the regions of the abstract and general just as the monks let it wither in the world of prayer and contemplation.”
    —Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
