Township Fire

Famous quotes containing the words township and/or fire:

“A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theater and causing a panic.”
