Famous quotes containing the words david and/or taylor:
“Let us have a good many maples and hickories and scarlet oaks, then, I say. Blaze away! Shall that dirty roll of bunting in the gun-house be all the colors a village can display? A village is not complete, unless it have these trees to mark the season in it. They are important, like the town clock. A village that has them not will not be found to work well. It has a screw loose, an essential part is wanting.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Alas! they had been friends in youth;
But whispering tongues can poison truth.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
