High Adds

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or adds:

    The chief want, in every State that I have been into, was a high and earnest purpose in its inhabitants. This alone draws out “the great resources” of Nature, and at last taxes her beyond her resources; for man naturally dies out of her.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    He is senseless who would match himself against a stronger man; for he is deprived of victory and adds suffering to disgrace.
