Spring Valley Township

Famous quotes containing the words spring, valley and/or township:

    A brook that was the water of the house,
    Cold as a spring as yet so near its source,
    Too lofty and original to rage.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    In a valley late bees with whining gold
    Thread summer to the loose ends of sleep....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
