Smith

Famous quotes containing the word smith:

“I am afraid if there is anything to be afraid of. A precipice cannot hurt you. Lions and tigers can. The streets of New York I consider more dangerous than the Matterhorn to a thoroughly competent and careful climber.”
—Annie Smith Peck (1850–1935)

“People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading.”
—Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)

“Not ringed but rare, not gilled but polyp-like, having sprung up
overnight—

These mushrooms of the gods, resembling human organs uprooted,
rooted only on the air,”
—William Jay Smith (b. 1918)
