Famous quotes containing the words camp and/or captain:
“We could not well camp higher, for want of fuel; and the trees here seemed so evergreen and sappy, that we almost doubted if they would acknowledge the influence of fire; but fire prevailed at last, and blazed here, too, like a good citizen of the world.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“John Gilpin was a citizen
Of credit and renown,
A train-band captain eke was he
Of famous London town.”
