Famous quotes containing the words bear and/or lodge:

    Like many other great moralists and preachers, she had been eloquent on a point in which her own conduct would ill bear examination.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    The Indians invited us to lodge with them, but my companion inclined to go to the log camp on the carry. This camp was close and dirty, and had an ill smell, and I preferred to accept the Indians’ offer, if we did not make a camp for ourselves; for, though they were dirty, too, they were more in the open air, and were much more agreeable, and even refined company, than the lumberers.... So we went to the Indians’ camp or wigwam.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
