Famous quotes containing the word men:
“There is no calm philosophy of life here, such as you might put at the end of the Almanac, to hang over the farmers hearth,how men shall live in these winter, in these summer days. No philosophy, properly speaking, of love, or friendship, or religion, or politics, or education, or nature, or spirit; perhaps a nearer approach to a philosophy of kingship, and of the place of the literary man, than of anything else.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
