Famous quotes containing the words david and/or barnett:

    Is it the lumberman, then, who is the friend and lover of the pine, stands nearest to it, and understands its nature best? Is it the tanner who has barked it, or he who has boxed it for turpentine, whom posterity will fable to have been changed into a pine at last? No! no! it is the poet.... All the pines shudder and heave a sigh when that man steps on the forest floor.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... a worker was seldom so much annoyed by what he got as by what he got in relation to his fellow workers.
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
