Famous quotes containing the words fort and/or buchanan:

    “Superstition? Who can define the boundary line between the superstition of yesterday and the scientific fact of tomorrow?”
    —Garrett Fort (1900–1945)

    “The Anglo-American can indeed cut down, and grub up all this waving forest, and make a stump speech, and vote for Buchanan on its ruins, but he cannot converse with the spirit of the tree he fells, he cannot read the poetry and mythology which retire as he advances. He ignorantly erases mythological tablets in order to print his handbills and town-meeting warrants on them.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
