Famous quotes containing the words camp and/or chase:

    Usually the scenery about them is drear and savage enough; and the logger’s camp is as completely in the woods as a fungus at the foot of a pine in a swamp; no outlook but to the sky overhead; no more clearing than is made by cutting down the trees of which it is built, and those which are necessary for fuel.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Groot: Now wait a minute, Quo. You really ain’t gonna take a man’s only set of teeth, are ya?
    Quo: Uh huh.
    Groot: Yeah, but I gotta use ‘em for eatin’.
    Quo: Come grub you get ‘em.
    Groot: Whad ya’ gonna do with ‘em?
    Quo: My name now Two-Jaw Quo.
    —Borden Chase [Frank Fowler] (1900–1971)
