Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:

    A Route of Evanescence
    With a revolving Wheel—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    The great object in life is Sensation—to feel that we exist, even though in pain; it is this “craving void” which drives us to gaming, to battle, to travel, to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
