Raised Raths

Famous quotes containing the words raised and/or raths:

    It is worth the expense of youthful days and costly hours, if you learn only some words of an ancient language, which are raised out of the trivialness of the street, to be perpetual suggestions and provocations. It is not in vain that the farmer remembers and repeats the few Latin words which he has heard.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
    Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
    All mismy were the borogoves,
    And the mome raths outgrabe.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
