St Vincent Township

Famous quotes containing the words vincent and/or township:

    Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
    What the swift mind beholds at every turn.
    —Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)

    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)
