Famous quotes containing the words umbrella and/or term:

    We styled ourselves the Knights of the Umbrella and the Bundle; for, wherever we went ... the umbrella and the bundle went with us; for we wished to be ready to digress at any moment. We made it our home nowhere in particular, but everywhere where our umbrella and bundle were.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There’s no term to the work of a scientist.
    Walter Reisch (1903–1963)
