Famous quotes containing the words peace and/or camp:
“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.”
—Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Matthew, 10:34.
“A healthy man, with steady employment, as wood-chopping at fifty cents a cord, and a camp in the woods, will not be a good subject for Christianity. The New Testament may be a choice book to him on some, but not on all or most of his days. He will rather go a-fishing in his leisure hours. The Apostles, though they were fishers too, were of the solemn race of sea-fishers, and never trolled for pickerel on inland streams.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
