Miles

Famous quotes containing the word miles:

    Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellows. The really diligent student in one of the crowded hives of Cambridge College is as solitary as a dervis in the desert.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I have been accustomed to make excursions to the ponds within ten miles of Concord, but latterly I have extended my excursions to the seashore.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I skirted the margin alders for miles and miles
    In a sweeping line.
    The day was the day by every flower that blooms,
    But I saw no sign.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
