Famous quotes containing the words oak, hill and/or academy:

    “I could lecture on dry oak leaves; I could, but who would hear me? If I were to try it on any large audience, I fear it would be no gain to them, and a positive loss to me. I should have behaved rudely toward my rustling friends.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Tawny are the leaves turned, but they still hold.
    It is the harvest; what shall this land produce?
    A meager hill of kernels, a runnel of juice.
    Declension looks from our land, it is old.”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    “When the State wishes to endow an academy or university, it grants it a tract of forest land: one saw represents an academy, a gang, a university.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
