Famous quotes containing the words david and/or tall:

    “The lakes are something which you are unprepared for; they lie up so high, exposed to the light, and the forest is diminished to a fine fringe on their edges, with here and there a blue mountain, like amethyst jewels set around some jewel of the first water,—so anterior, so superior, to all the changes that are to take place on their shores, even now civil and refined, and fair as they can ever be.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Flick stands tall among the idiot pumps—
    Five on a side, the old bubble-head style,
    Their rubber elbows hanging loose and low.”
    —John Updike (b. 1932)
