Bridgewater State

Famous quotes containing the words bridgewater and/or state:

    I have heard of a minister, who had been a fisherman, being settled in Bridgewater for as long a time as he could tell a cod from a haddock. Generous as it seems, this condition would empty most country pulpits forthwith, for it is long since the fishers of men were fishermen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Alas, why would you heap this care on me?
    I am unfit for state and majesty.
    I do beseech you take it not amiss,
    I cannot nor I will not yield to you.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
