Township Line

Famous quotes containing the words township and/or line:

    “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)

    “I love them
    for finding what
    I can’t find,
    and for loving me
    for the line I wrote,
    and for forgetting it....”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
