Free Labor

Famous quotes containing the words free and/or labor:

    I done et so free o’ fish, my stommick rises and falls with the tide.
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
