Native Burmese Word

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or word:

“The air of one’s native country is the most healthy air.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“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)
