Famous quotes containing the words health and/or account:

    “The health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired, so long as we can see far enough.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “After reading Howitt’s account of the Australian gold-diggings one evening,... I asked myself why I might not be washing some gold daily, though it were only the finest particles,—why I might not sink a shaft down to the gold within me, and work that mine.... At any rate, I might pursue some path, however solitary and narrow and crooked, in which I could walk with love and reverence.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
