Thompson/places

Famous quotes containing the words thompson and/or places:

    Above the bayonets, mixed and crossed,
    Men saw a gray, gigantic ghost
    Receding through the battle cloud,
    And heard across the tempest loud
    The death cry of a nation lost!
    —Will Henry Thompson (1848–1918)

    We said there warn’t no home like a raft, after all. Other places do seem so cramped up and smothery, but a raft don’t. You feel mighty free and easy and comfortable on a raft.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
