A Quote by Henry Ward Beecher

There is an equator that runs just under the nose: all that live below the equator are animals; all that live above it are men. — © Henry Ward Beecher
There is an equator that runs just under the nose: all that live below the equator are animals; all that live above it are men.
If the unicorn does live among the snows held up forever on the line of the Equator then it is clear why the world should know so little about them.
With the possible exception of the equator, everything begins somewhere.
However, the small probability of a similar encounter [of the earth with a comet], can become very great in adding up over a huge sequence of centuries. It is easy to picture to oneself the effects of this impact upon the Earth. The axis and the motion of rotation changed; the seas abandoning their old position to throw themselves toward the new equator; a large part of men and animals drowned in this universal deluge, or destroyed by the violent tremor imparted to the terrestrial globe.
India is a geographical term. It is no more a united nation than the Equator.
You think we stand a chance? (Delphine) Like an icicle on the equator. (Phobos)

I don't understand people who just live to exist, live to be OK. Live to be regular, live to be average. It doesn't make any sense to me. I live to be the best. I don't live to be good. You only get one life, and I live to be great. I live to be special.
I hope before long to press you in my arms and shall shower on you a million burning kisses as under the Equator.
I had a farm in Africa, at the foot of the Ngong Hills. The Equator runs across these highlands, a hundred miles to the North, and the farm lay at an altitude of over six thousand feet. In the day-time you felt that you had got high up, near to the sun, but the early mornings and evenings were limpid and restful, and the nights were cold.
You can't be at the pole and the equator at the same time. You must choose your own line, as I hope to do, and it will probably be color.
I can't get used to the ease with which one covers the world today. It's no longer an effort--Pole--equator--oceans--continents--it's just a question of which way you point the nose of your plane. The pure joy of flight as an art has given way to the pure efficiency of flight as a science.... Science is insulating man from life -- separating his mind from his senses. The worst of it is that it soon anaesthetizes his senses so that he doesn't know what he's missing.
Jealousy seems the absolute reversal of love. It is the swinging from the sunny warmth of the Equator to the frigid cold of the North Pole.
The equator was wisely put where it is, because if it had been run through Europe all the kings would have tried to grab it.
The long summer was over. For ages a tropical climate had prevailed over a great part of the earth, and animals whose home is now beneath the Equator roamed over the world from the far South to the very borders of the Arctics ... But their reign was over. A sudden intense winter, that was also to last for ages, fell upon our globe.
Someone has said that to plagiarise from the ancients is to play the pirate beyond the Equator, but that to steal from the moderns is to pick pockets at street corners.
Man cannot live on the human plane, he must be either above or below it.
