Famous quotes containing the words trade and/or associations:
“And there is no trade or employment but the young man following it may become a hero.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“Wild as it was, it was hard for me to get rid of the associations of the settlements. Any steady and monotonous sound, to which I did not distinctly attend, passed for a sound of human industry.... Our minds anywhere, when left to themselves, are always thus busily drawing conclusions from false premises.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
