Outdoor Long Jump

Famous quotes containing the words outdoor, long and/or jump:

    From my experience with wild apples, I can understand that there may be reason for a savage’s preferring many kinds of food which the civilized man rejects. The former has the palate of an outdoor man. It takes a savage or wild taste to appreciate a wild fruit.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    So long as you don’t feel life’s paltry and a miserable business, the rest doesn’t matter, happiness or unhappiness.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
    And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.
    He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
    And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
