Famous quotes containing the words fur and/or family:

    I have no doubt that they lived pretty much the same sort of life in the Homeric age, for men have always thought more of eating than of fighting; then, as now, their minds ran chiefly on the “hot bread and sweet cakes;” and the fur and lumber trade is an old story to Asia and Europe.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is extraordinary that when you are acquainted with a whole family you can forget about them.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
