Berlin Work

Famous quotes containing the words berlin and/or work:

    Won’t you play a simple melody
    Like my mother sang to me—
    One with good old fashioned harmony.
    Play a simple melody.
    —Irving Berlin (1888–1989)

    Making a logging-road in the Maine woods is called “swamping” it, and they who do the work are called “swampers.” I now perceived the fitness of the term. This was the most perfectly swamped of all the roads I ever saw. Nature must have coƶperated with art here.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
