David Mckay

Famous quotes containing the words david and/or mckay:

    Before I finally went into winter quarters in November, I used to resort to the north- east side of Walden, which the sun, reflected from the pitch pine woods and the stony shore, made the fireside of the pond; it is so much pleasanter and wholesomer to be warmed by the sun while you can be, than by an artificial fire. I thus warmed myself by the still glowing embers which the summer, like a departed hunter, had left.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Oh, I must keep my heart inviolate
    Against the potent poison of your hate.
    —Claude McKay (1889–1948)
