Spade Ranch House

Famous quotes containing the words spade and/or house:

    As for farming, I am convinced that my genius dates from an older era than the agricultural. I would at least strike my spade into the earth with such careless freedom but accuracy as the woodpecker his bill into a tree.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free.
