Famous quotes containing the words home, run and/or log:

    “Life begins to happen.
    My hoppped up husband drops his home disputes,
    and hits the streets to cruise for prostitutes,”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    “Still as they run they look behind,
    They hear a voice in every wind,
    And snatch a fearful joy.”
    —Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    “The Indians invited us to lodge with them, but my companion inclined to go to the log camp on the carry. This camp was close and dirty, and had an ill smell, and I preferred to accept the Indians’ offer, if we did not make a camp for ourselves; for, though they were dirty, too, they were more in the open air, and were much more agreeable, and even refined company, than the lumberers.... So we went to the Indians’ camp or wigwam.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
