South Town

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or town:

“The South is very beautiful but its beauty makes one sad because the lives that people live here, and have lived here, are so ugly.”

“Let no one think that I do not love the old ministers. They were, probably, the best men in their generation, and they deserve that their biographies should fill the pages of the town histories. If I could but hear the “glad tidings” of which they tell, and which, perchance, they heard, I might write in a worthier strain than this.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
