Teams Played Warm

Famous quotes containing the words teams, played and/or warm:

    A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It was a pretty game, played on the smooth surface of the pond, a man against a loon.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    To warm the frozen swamp as best it could
    With the slow smokeless burning of decay.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
