Famous quotes containing the words team and/or event:
“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“This event advertises me that there is such a fact as death,the possibility of a mans dying. It seems as if no man had ever died in America before; for in order to die you must first have lived.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
