Famous quotes containing the words camp and/or swift:
“A healthy man, with steady employment, as wood-chopping at fifty cents a cord, and a camp in the woods, will not be a good subject for Christianity. The New Testament may be a choice book to him on some, but not on all or most of his days. He will rather go a-fishing in his leisure hours. The Apostles, though they were fishers too, were of the solemn race of sea-fishers, and never trolled for pickerel on inland streams.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Triumphant Tories, and desponding Whigs,
Forget their feuds, and join to save their wigs.”
—Jonathan Swift (16671745)
