Famous quotes containing the words douglass and/or township:

    “Fit gravefellows you are for Lincoln, Brown
    And Douglass and Toussaint. . . all whose rapt eyes
    Fashioned a new world in this wilderness.
    American earth is richer for your bones;
    Our hearts beat prouder for the blood we inherit.”
    —Dudley Randall (b. 1914)

    “A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
