Famous quotes containing the words france and/or lost:
“I shall not bring an automobile with me. These inventions infest France almost as much as Bloomer cycling costumes, but they make a horrid racket, and are particularly objectionable. So are the Bloomers. Nothing more abominable has ever been invented. Perhaps the automobile tricycles may succeed better, but I abjure all these works of the devil.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“It is a surprising and memorable, as well as valuable experience, to be lost in the woods any time.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
