Famous quotes containing the word david:

    There is no doubt that the loftiest written wisdom is either rhymed or in some way musically measured,—is, in form as well as substance, poetry; and a volume which should contain the condensed wisdom of mankind need not have one rhythmless line.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
