Famous quotes containing the words borland and/or launched:
“Some people are like ants. Give them a warm day and a piece of ground and they start digging. There the similarity ends. Ants keep on digging. Most people dont.

—Hal Borland (19001978)
“It was a very primitive kind of harbor, where boats were drawn up amid the stumps,such a one, methought, as the Argo might have been launched in.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
