Thy Neighbor

Famous quotes containing the words thy and/or neighbor:

“Show me no more those snowy breasts
With azure riverets branched
Where, whilst mine eye with plenty feasts
Yet is my thirst not staunched;
O Tantalus, thy pains ne’er tell,
By me thou are prevented;
‘Tis nothing to be plagued in Hell,
But thus in Heaven tormented.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

“Sometimes a neighbor whom we have disliked a lifetime for his arrogance and conceit lets fall a single commonplace remark that shows us another side, another man, really; a man uncertain, and puzzled, and in the dark like ourselves.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
