Famous quotes containing the words crab and/or walks:

“There are no small number of people in this world who, solitary by nature,
always try to go back into their shell like a hermit crab or a snail.”

“I weathered some merry snow-storms, and spent some cheerful winter evenings by my fireside, while the snow whirled wildly without, and even the hooting of the owl was hushed. For many weeks I met no one in my walks but those who came occasionally to cut wood and sled it to the village.... For human society I was obliged to conjure up the former occupants of these woods.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
