Famous quotes containing the words california and/or adventure:
“I can’t earn my own living. I could never make anything turn into money. It’s like making fires. A careful assortment of paper, shavings, faggots and kindling nicely tipped with pitch will never light for me. I have never been present when a cigarette butt, extinct, thrown into a damp and isolated spot, started a conflagration in the California woods.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
“There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won’t.”
—William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)
