Famous quotes containing the word inhabitants:
“What are these,
So withered, and so wild in their attire,
That look not like th’ inhabitants o’th’ earth,
And yet are on’t?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Our woods are sylvan, and their inhabitants woodmen and rustics; that is selvaggia, and the inhabitants are salvages. A civilized man, using the word in the ordinary sense, with his ideas and associations, must at length pine there, like a cultivated plant, which clasps its fibres about a crude and undissolved mass of peat.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We may consider each generation as a distinct nation, with a right, by the will of its majority, to bind themselves, but none to bind the succeeding generation, more than the inhabitants of another country.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
