Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or bois:

    Critics are sentinels in the grand army of letters, stationed at the corners of newspapers and reviews, to challenge every new author.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    This spirit it was which so early carried the French to the Great Lakes and the Mississippi on the north, and the Spaniard to the same river on the south. It was long before our frontiers reached their settlements in the West, and a voyageur or coureur de bois is still our conductor there.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
