Famous quotes containing the words plot and/or introduction:
“The plot thickens, he said, as I entered.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (18591930)
“Such is oftenest the young mans introduction to the forest, and the most original part of himself. He goes thither at first as a hunter and fisher, until at last, if he has the seeds of a better life in him, he distinguishes his proper objects, as a poet or naturalist it may be, and leaves the gun and fish-pole behind. The mass of men are still and always young in this respect.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
