Beginning Reading

Famous quotes containing the words beginning and/or reading:

    But when he noticed the strong wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!”
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 14:30.

    Peter.

    After reading Howitt’s account of the Australian gold-diggings one evening,... I asked myself why I might not be washing some gold daily, though it were only the finest particles,—why I might not sink a shaft down to the gold within me, and work that mine.... At any rate, I might pursue some path, however solitary and narrow and crooked, in which I could walk with love and reverence.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
