Famous quotes containing the words gulf, stream and/or magazine:

    “His father watched him across the gulf of years and pathos which always must divide a father from his son.”
    —J.P. (John Phillips)

    “One has but to observe a community of beavers at work in a stream to understand the loss in his sagacity, balance, co-operation, competence, and purpose which Man has suffered since he rose up on his hind legs.... He began to chatter and he developed Reason, Thought, and Imagination, qualities which would get the smartest group of rabbits or orioles in the world into inextricable trouble overnight.”
    —James Thurber (1894–1961)

    “Do not be discouraged, if in a thousand instances you find your kindness rejected and wronged, your good evil-spoken of, and the hand you extend for the relief of others, cast insultingly away; the benevolence which cannot outlive these trials of its purity and strength, is not like the self-sacrifice of him, who went about doing good.”
    —C., U.S. women’s magazine contributor. American Ladies Magazine, pp. 331-4 (July 1828)
