Fellows

Famous quotes containing the word fellows:

    “...I remembered the rose bush that had reached a thorny branch out through the ragged fence, and caught my dress, detaining me when I would have passed on. And again the symbolism of it all came over me. These memories and visions of the poor—they were the clutch of the thorns. Social workers have all felt it. It holds them to their work, because the thorns curve backward, and one cannot pull away.”
    —Albion Fellows Bacon (1865–1933)

    “I have seen more men than usual, lately; and, well as I was acquainted with one, I am surprised to find what vulgar fellows they are.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Religion is a great force: the only real motive force in the world; but what you fellows don’t understand is that you must get at a man through his own religion and not through yours.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
