Famous quotes containing the words wilderness and/or areas:

    The man in the wilderness said to me,
    How many strawberries grow in the sea?
    I answered him as I thought good,
    As many red herrings as grow in the wood.
    Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. The man in the wilderness (l. 1–4)

    The discovery of the North Pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. It is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. The world needed a discoverer of the North Pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
