Northern Red

Famous quotes containing the words northern and/or red:

    The note of the white-throated sparrow, a very inspiriting but almost wiry sound, was first heard in the morning, and with this all the woods rang. This was the prevailing bird in the northern part of Maine. The forest generally was alive with them at this season, and they were proportionally numerous and musical about Bangor. They evidently breed in that State.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Not that the Red Indian will ever possess the broad lands of America. At least I presume not. But his ghost will.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
