Thy Neighbor

Famous quotes containing the words thy and/or neighbor:

    “So in majestic cadence rise and fall
    The mighty undulations of thy song,
    O sightless bard, England’s Monides!
    And ever and anon, high over all
    Uplifted, a ninth wave superb and strong,
    Floods all the soul with its melodious seas.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    “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)
