Famous quotes containing the words joe, brown and/or born:
“While we were thus engaged in the twilight, we heard faintly, from far down the stream, what sounded like two strokes of a woodchopper’s axe, echoing dully through the grim solitude.... When we told Joe of this, he exclaimed, “By George, I’ll bet that was a moose! They make a noise like that.” These sounds affected us strangely, and by their very resemblance to a familiar one, where they probably had so different an origin, enhanced the impression of solitude and wildness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Whippersnapper clerks
Call us out of our name
We got to say mister
To spindling boys”
—Sterling Allen Brown (b. 1901)
“It is the blight man was born for,
It is Margaret you mourn for.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
