Famous quotes containing the words pine and/or top:
“Our woods are sylvan, and their inhabitants woodmen and rustics; that is selvaggia, and the inhabitants are salvages. A civilized man, using the word in the ordinary sense, with his ideas and associations, must at length pine there, like a cultivated plant, which clasps its fibres about a crude and undissolved mass of peat.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“O, tis a parlous boy,
Bold, quick, ingenious, forward, capable.
He is all the mothers, from the top to toe.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
