Voyaging Canoe

Famous quotes containing the words voyaging and/or canoe:

    The other side of the globe is but the home of our correspondent. Our voyaging is only great-circle sailing.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There was something refreshingly and wildly musical to my ears in the very name of the white man’s canoe, reminding me of Charlevoix and Canadian Voyageurs. The batteau is a sort of mongrel between the canoe and the boat, a fur-trader’s boat.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
