Famous quotes containing the words spring and/or salmon:

    “all ignorance toboggans into know
    and trudges up to ignorance again:

    melts; and if spring should spoil the game, what then?

    all history’s a winter sport or three:”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    “The first man to discover Chinook salmon in the Columbia, caught 264 in a day and carried them across the river by walking on the backs of other fish. His greatest feat, however, was learning the Chinook jargon in 15 minutes from listening to salmon talk.”
