Bradbury Township

Famous quotes containing the words bradbury and/or township:

    English history is all about men liking their fathers, and American history is all about men hating their fathers and trying to burn down everything they ever did.
    —Malcolm Bradbury (b. 1932)

    A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
