Famous quotes containing the words harry and/or collier:

    It is now many years that men have resorted to the forest for fuel and the materials of the arts: the New Englander and the New Hollander, the Parisian and the Celt, the farmer and Robin Hood, Goody Blake and Harry Gill; in most parts of the world, the prince and the peasant, the scholar and the savage, equally require still a few sticks from the forest to warm them and cook their food. Neither could I do without them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Oh, what’s the matter wi’ you, my lass,
    An’ where’s your dashin Jimmy?
    The sowdger boys have picked him up
    And sent him far, far frae me.
    —Unknown. Jimmy’s Enlisted; or, The Recruited Collier (l. 1–4)
