Famous quotes containing the words front and/or cover:
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.... I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I wouldnt pray just for a old man thats dead because hes all right. If I was to pray, Id pray for the folks thats alive and dont know which way to turn. Grampa here, he aint got no more trouble like that. Hes got his job all cut out for him. So cover him up and let him get to it.”
—Nunnally Johnson (18971977)
