Original Captain

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or captain:

    Such is oftenest the young man’s introduction to the forest, and the most original part of himself. He goes thither at first as a hunter and fisher, until at last, if he has the seeds of a better life in him, he distinguishes his proper objects, as a poet or naturalist it may be, and leaves the gun and fish-pole behind. The mass of men are still and always young in this respect.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Fear has nothing to do with cowardice. A fellow is only yellow when he lets his fear make him quit.
    Jerome Cady, U.S. screenwriter, and Lewis Milestone. Captain Ross (Dana Andrews)
