Famous quotes containing the words eskimos and/or seasons:

“Lieutenant Hirth: The Eskimos are racially as low as Negroes.
The Factor: What’s the matter with Negroes?
Lieutenant Hirth: They’re semi-apes. Only one degree above the Jews.”
—Emeric Pressburger (1902–1988)

“When the ice is covered with snow, I do not suspect the wealth under my feet; that there is as good as a mine under me wherever I go. How many pickerel are poised on easy fin fathoms below the loaded wain! The revolution of the seasons must be a curious phenomenon to them. At length the sun and wind brush aside their curtain, and they see the heavens again.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
