Original Inhabitants

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or inhabitants:

“All good things were previously wicked things; every original sin has become an original virtue.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“If men will believe it, sua si bona norint, there are no more quiet Tempes, nor more poetic and Arcadian lives, than may be lived in these New England dwellings. We thought that the employment of their inhabitants by day would be to tend the flowers and herds, and at night, like the shepherds of old, to cluster and give names to the stars from the river banks.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
