Famous quotes containing the words educators and/or explorers:

    The great want of our race is perfect educators to train new-born minds, who are infallible teachers of what is right and true.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world. I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
