Cook Dam

Famous quotes containing the words cook and/or dam:

    From what I have said of the natives of New Holland they may appear to some to be the most wretched people upon earth; but in reality they are far happier than we Europeans, being wholly unacquainted not only with the superfluous, but with the necessary conveniences so much sought after in Europe; they are happy in not knowing the use of them.
    James, Captain Cook (1728–1779)

    The devil take one party and his dam the other!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
