Increasing Addresses

Famous quotes containing the words increasing and/or addresses:

    We thus worked our way up this river, gradually adjusting our thoughts to novelties, beholding from its placid bosom a new nature and new works of men, and, as it were with increasing confidence, finding nature still habitable, genial, and propitious to us; not following any beaten path, but the windings of the river, as ever the nearest way for us. Fortunately, we had no business in this country.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The question “From where does the poet get it?” addresses only the what, nobody learns anything about the how when asking that question.
