Famous quotes containing the words north, collins and/or village:

    We should declare war on North Vietnam.... We could pave the whole country and put parking strips on it, and still be home by Christmas.

    But com’st a decent maid,
    In Attic robe array’d,
    O chaste, unboastful nymph, to thee I call!
    —William Collins (1721–1759)

    Let us have a good many maples and hickories and scarlet oaks, then, I say. Blaze away! Shall that dirty roll of bunting in the gun-house be all the colors a village can display? A village is not complete, unless it have these trees to mark the season in it. They are important, like the town clock. A village that has them not will not be found to work well. It has a screw loose, an essential part is wanting.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
