Log

Famous quotes containing the word log:

    The most interesting dwellings in this country, as the painter knows, are the most unpretending, humble log huts and cottages of the poor commonly; it is the life of the inhabitants whose shells they are, and not any peculiarity in their surfaces merely, which makes them picturesque.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There is hardly a pioneer’s hut which does not contain a few odd volumes of Shakespeare. I remember reading the feudal drama of Henry V for the first time in a log cabin.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    My merrie, merrie boyes,
    The Christmas Log to the firing;
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
