Destination String

Famous quotes containing the words destination and/or string:

    A man’s destination is not his destiny,
    Every country is home to one man
    And exile to another. Where a man dies bravely
    At one with his destiny, that soil is his.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The Indian remarked as before, “Must have hard wood to cook moose-meat,” as if that were a maxim, and proceeded to get it. My companion cooked some in California fashion, winding a long string of the meat round a stick and slowly turning it in his hand before the fire. It was very good. But the Indian, not approving of the mode, or because he was not allowed to cook it his own way, would not taste it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
