Famous quotes containing the word david:

    Men and boys are learning all kinds of trades but how to make men of themselves. They learn to make houses; but they are not so well housed, they are not so contented in their houses, as the woodchucks in their holes.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
