Famous quotes containing the words bold and/or venture:
“These battles sound incredible to us. I think that posterity will doubt if such things ever were,—if our bold ancestors who settled this land were not struggling rather with the forest shadows, and not with a copper-colored race of men. They were vapors, fever and ague of the unsettled woods. Now, only a few arrowheads are turned up by the plow. In the Pelasgic, the Etruscan, or the British story, there is nothing so shadowy and unreal.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I am being given, if I may venture the expression, birth into death, such is my impression. The feet are clear already, of the great cunt of existence.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
