Numerous Trash Mounds

Famous quotes containing the words numerous and/or trash:

    “The tracks of moose, more or less recent, to speak literally, covered every square rod on the sides of the mountain; and these animals are probably more numerous there now than ever before, being driven into this wilderness, from all sides, by the settlements.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I had to kick their law into their teeth in order to save them.
    However I have heard that sometimes you have to deal
    Devilishly with drowning men in order to swim them to shore.
    Or they will haul themselves and you to the trash and the fish beneath.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
