Doyle Owl

Famous quotes containing the words doyle and/or owl:

    My sister and I, you will recollect, were twins, and you know how subtle are the links which bind two souls which are so closely allied.
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)

    I weathered some merry snow-storms, and spent some cheerful winter evenings by my fireside, while the snow whirled wildly without, and even the hooting of the owl was hushed. For many weeks I met no one in my walks but those who came occasionally to cut wood and sled it to the village.... For human society I was obliged to conjure up the former occupants of these woods.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
