Pilgrimage Place

Famous quotes containing the words pilgrimage and/or place:

    The ripest fruit first falls, and so doth he.
    His time is spent; our pilgrimage must be.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The child ... stands upon a place apart, a little spectator of the world, before whom men and women come and go, events fall out, years open their slow story and are noted or let go as his mood chances to serve them. The play touches him not. He but looks on, thinks his own thought, and turns away, not even expecting his cue to enter the plot and speak. He waits,—he knows not for what.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
