Young Pioneer Camps

Famous quotes containing the words young and/or pioneer:

    They tell me, Lucy, thou art dead,
    That all of thee we loved and cherished
    Has with thy summer roses perished;
    And left, as its young beauty fled,
    An ashen memory in its stead.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    Where the citizen uses a mere sliver or board, the pioneer uses the whole trunk of a tree.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
