Famous quotes containing the words armstrong and/or creek:

    rather then men shall say we were hange’d,
    Let them report how we were slaine.’
    —Unknown. Johnie Armstrong (l. 51–52)

    It might be seen by what tenure men held the earth. The smallest stream is mediterranean sea, a smaller ocean creek within the land, where men may steer by their farm bounds and cottage lights. For my own part, but for the geographers, I should hardly have known how large a portion of our globe is water, my life has chiefly passed within so deep a cove. Yet I have sometimes ventured as far as to the mouth of my Snug Harbor.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
