Famous quotes containing the words david and/or faber:

    The chief want, in every State that I have been into, was a high and earnest purpose in its inhabitants. This alone draws out “the great resources” of Nature, and at last taxes her beyond her resources; for man naturally dies out of her.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If anybody comes to I,
    I physics, bleeds, and sweats’em;
    If, after that, they like to die,
    Why, what care I, I lets ‘em.
    —Anonymous. “On Dr. Lettsom,” from Geoffrey Grigson’s Faber Book of Epigrams and Epitaphs (1977)
