Lodge

Famous quotes containing the word lodge:

    I would in rich and golden coloured raine,
    With tempting showers in pleasant sort discend,
    —Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    Vices may be said to await us along the course of our lives like hosts with whom we lodge successively on a journey; and I doubt that experience would cause us to avoid them, if we could travel the same road twice.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Who should come to my lodge this morning but a true Homeric or Paphlagonian man,—he had so suitable and poetic a name that I am sorry I cannot print it here,—a Canadian, a woodchopper and post-maker, who can hole fifty posts in a day, who made his last supper on a woodchuck which his dog caught.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
