Hard Woods

Famous quotes containing the words hard and/or woods:

“For hard it is to keep from being King
When it’s in you and in the situation.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“Our woods are sylvan, and their inhabitants woodmen and rustics; that is selvaggia, and the inhabitants are salvages. A civilized man, using the word in the ordinary sense, with his ideas and associations, must at length pine there, like a cultivated plant, which clasps its fibres about a crude and undissolved mass of peat.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
