Bridgewater State

Famous quotes containing the words bridgewater and/or state:

    I have heard of a minister, who had been a fisherman, being settled in Bridgewater for as long a time as he could tell a cod from a haddock. Generous as it seems, this condition would empty most country pulpits forthwith, for it is long since the fishers of men were fishermen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
    —Bible: New Testament St. Paul, in Philippians, 4:11.
