Famous quotes containing the words trowbridge and/or population:

    And this is the moral—Stick to your sphere,
    Or if you insist, as you have a right,
    On spreading your wings for a loftier flight,
    The moral is—Take care how you light.
    —John Townsend Trowbridge (1827–1916)

    The most advanced nations are always those who navigate the most. The power which the sea requires in the sailor makes a man of him very fast, and the change of shores and population clears his head of much nonsense of his wigwam.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
