Famous quotes containing the word roads:

    “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
    And sorry I could not travel both
    And be one traveler, long I stood
    And looked down one as far as I could”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Pioneers lay the roads for those who follow to walk on.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “Other roads do some violence to Nature, and bring the traveler to stare at her, but the river steals into the scenery it traverses without intrusion, silently creating and adorning it, and is as free to come and go as the zephyr.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
