Settler Movement

Famous quotes containing the words settler and/or movement:

    Water is a pioneer which the settler follows, taking advantage of its improvements.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Christianity was only a very strong and singularly well-timed Salvation Army movement that happened to receive help from an unusual and highly dramatic incident. It was a Puritan reaction in an age when, no doubt, a Puritan reaction was much wanted; but like all sudden violent reactions, it soon wanted reacting against.
