Famous quotes containing the words joe, phillips and/or kick:
“While we were thus engaged in the twilight, we heard faintly, from far down the stream, what sounded like two strokes of a woodchopper’s axe, echoing dully through the grim solitude.... When we told Joe of this, he exclaimed, “By George, I’ll bet that was a moose!

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
