Famous quotes containing the words humboldt and/or bay:

    “Whatever does not spring from a man’s free choice, or is only the result of instruction and guidance, does not enter into his very being, but still remains alien to his true nature; he does not perform it with truly human energies, but merely with mechanical exactness.”
    —Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)

    “The very dogs that sullenly bay the moon from farm-yards in these nights excite more heroism in our breasts than all the civil exhortations or war sermons of the age.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
