Famous quotes containing the words mud and/or hens:

“Out of the mud two strangers came”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“I think of no news to tell you. It is a serene summer day here, all above the snow. The hens steal their nests, and I steal their eggs still, as formerly. This is what I do with the hands. Ah, labor,—it is a divine institution, and conversation with many men and hens.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
