Famous quotes containing the words lone and/or pine:
“In the lowlands I have no comrade, not even the lone mans friend”
—Thomas Hardy (18401928)
“Our woods are sylvan, and their inhabitants woodmen and rustics; that is selvaggia, and the inhabitants are salvages. A civilized man, using the word in the ordinary sense, with his ideas and associations, must at length pine there, like a cultivated plant, which clasps its fibres about a crude and undissolved mass of peat.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
