Famous quotes containing the words thy and/or neighbor:

figures of flame,
figures of smoke,
figures of flesh....”

“Do what you know you ought to do. Why should we ever go abroad, even across the way, to ask a neighbor’s advice? There is a nearer neighbor within us incessantly telling us how we should behave. But we wait for the neighbor without to tell us of some false, easier way.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
