Khan Tartar Mix

Famous quotes containing the words tartar and/or mix:

“Once I went so far as to slaughter a woodchuck which ravaged my bean-field,—effect his transmigration, as a Tartar would say,—and devour him, partly for experiment’s sake; but though it afforded me a momentary enjoyment, notwithstanding a musky flavor, I saw that the longest use would not make that a good practice, however it might seem to have your woodchucks ready dressed by the village butcher.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“One could laugh at the world better if it didn’t mix tender kindliness with its brutality.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
