Welch Served

Famous quotes containing the words welch and/or served:

“He promised
that life would go on as usual,
that treaties would be signed, and everyone—
man, woman and child—would be inoculate
against a world in which we had no part,
a world of money, promise and disease.”
—James Welch (b. 1940)

“It was the most wild and desolate region we had camped in, where, if anywhere, one might expect to meet with befitting inhabitants, but I heard only the squeak of a nighthawk flitting over. The moon in her first quarter, in the fore part of the night, setting over the bare rocky hills garnished with tall, charred, and hollow stumps or shells of trees, served to reveal the desolation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
