Famous quotes containing the words sounds, true and/or stories:

    While we were thus engaged in the twilight, we heard faintly, from far down the stream, what sounded like two strokes of a woodchopper’s axe, echoing dully through the grim solitude.... When we told Joe of this, he exclaimed, “By George, I’ll bet that was a moose! They make a noise like that.” These sounds affected us strangely, and by their very resemblance to a familiar one, where they probably had so different an origin, enhanced the impression of solitude and wildness.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I apologize for not being entirely honest with you. I apologize for hiding my true feelings. I apologize, sir, for not telling you sooner that you are a sadistic, degenerate old man. And you can go to hell before I apologize to you now or ever again.
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    I found that they knew but little of the history of their race, and could be entertained by stories about their ancestors as readily as any way.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
