Famous quotes containing the word towers:
“A city on whom plenty held full hand,
For riches strewed herself even in her streets;
Whose towers bore heads so high they kissed the clouds,
And strangers neer beheld but wondered at.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Even great towers start at ground level.”
—Chinese proverb.
“Lay a beam between these two towers of such width as we need to walk on: there is no philosophical wisdom of such great firmness that it can give us courage to walk on it as we should if it were on the ground.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
