Famous quotes containing the words david and/or webster:

    “It is surprising with what impunity and comfort one who has always lain in a warm bed in a close apartment, and studiously avoided drafts of air, can lie down on the ground without a shelter, roll himself in a blanket, and sleep before a fire, in a frosty autumn night, just after a long rain-storm, and even come soon to enjoy and value the fresh air.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Heaven-gates are not so highly arched
    As princes’ palaces: they that enter there
    Must go upon their knees.”
    —John Webster (1580–1625)
