Jungles Long

Famous quotes containing the words jungles and/or long:

    A man perfects himself by working. Foul jungles are cleared away, fair seed-fields rise instead, and stately cities; and withal the man himself first ceases to be a jungle, and foul unwholesome desert thereby.... The man is now a man.

    I long remained a child, and I am still one in many respects.
