Famous quotes containing the words soil and/or type:

    Men nowhere, east or west, live yet a natural life, round which the vine clings, and which the elm willingly shadows. Man would desecrate it by his touch, and so the beauty of the world remains veiled to him. He needs not only to be spiritualized, but naturalized, on the soil of earth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The more characteristic American hero in the earlier day, and the more beloved type at all times, was not the hustler but the whittler.
    Mark Sullivan (1874–1952)
