Swamp Forests

Famous quotes containing the words swamp and/or forests:

“I see less difference between a city and a swamp than formerly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“‘Tis chastity, my brother, chastity.
She that has that is clad in complete steel,
And like a quivered nymph with arrows keen
May trace huge forests and unharbored heaths,
Infamous hills and sandy perilous wilds,
Where, through the sacred rays of chastity,
No savage fierce, bandit, or mountaineer
Will dare to soil her virgin purity.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
