Famous quotes containing the words adam and/or osborne:

    Let those talk of poverty and hard times who will in the towns and cities; cannot the emigrant who can pay his fare to New York or Boston pay five dollars more to get here ... and be as rich as he pleases, where land virtually costs nothing, and houses only the labor of building, and he may begin life as Adam did? If he will still remember the distinction of poor and rich, let him bespeak him a narrower house forthwith.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I never thought as it was any harm to say a young man was handsome. But I shall never think of him any more now. For handsome is as handsome does.
    —John Osborne (1929–1994)
