Famous quotes containing the words start and/or event:

    It’s a funny thing about men, you know. They all start life being boys. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of these senators were boys once.
    Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)

    When we awoke, we found a heavy dew on our blankets. I lay awake very early, and listened to the clear, shrill ah, te te, te te, te of the white-throated sparrow, repeated at short intervals, without the least variation, for half an hour, as if it could not enough express its happiness. Whether my companions heard it or not, I know not, but it was a kind of matins to me, and the event of the forenoon.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
