Putney - Nearest Places

Famous quotes containing the words nearest and/or places:

“Scratching is one of nature’s sweetest gratifications, and the one nearest at hand.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

“‘Whence thou return’st, and whither wentst, I know;
For God is also in sleep; and dreams advise,
Which he hath sent propitious, some great good
Presaging, since, with sorrow and heart’s distress,
Wearied I fell asleep: but now lead on;
In me is no delay; without thee here to stay,
Is to go hence unwilling; thou to me
Art all things under Heaven, all places thou,”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
