Famous quotes containing the words plymouth, church, shaker and/or heights:

    In clear weather the laziest may look across the Bay as far as Plymouth at a glance, or over the Atlantic as far as human vision reaches, merely raising his eyelids; or if he is too lazy to look after all, he can hardly help hearing the ceaseless dash and roar of the breakers. The restless ocean may at any moment cast up a whale or a wrecked vessel at your feet. All the reporters in the world, the most rapid stenographers, could not report the news it brings.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Place before your eyes two Precepts, and two only. One is, Preach the Gospel; and the other is—Put down enthusiasm! ... The Church of England in a nutshell.
    Humphrey, Mrs. Ward (1851–1920)

    Of the Shaker society, it was formerly a sort of proverb in the country, that they always sent the devil to market.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Give me the keys. I feel for the common chord again,
    Sliding by semi-tones till I sink to a minor,—yes,
    And I blunt it into a ninth, and I stand on alien ground,
    Surveying a while the heights I rolled from into the deep;
    Which, hark, I have dared and done, for my resting-place is found,
    The C Major of this life: so, now I will try to sleep.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)
