Robert Louis Stevenson Quotes

Into No Other City Does The Sight Of The Country Enter So Far; If You Do Not Meet A Butterfly, You Shall Certainly Catch A Glimpse Of Far-away Trees Upon Your Walk; And The Place Is Full Of Theatre Tricks In The Way Of Scenery. You Peep Under An Arch, You Descend Stairs That Look As If They Would Land You In A Cellar, You Turn To The Back-window Of A Grimy Tenement In A Lane: - And Behold! You Are Face-to-face With Distant And Bright Prospects. You Turn A Corner, And There Is The Sun Going Down Into The Highland Hills. You Look Down An Alley, And See Ships Tacking For The Baltic.
