Population Exists

Famous quotes containing the words population and/or exists:

“This was the Eastham famous of late years for its camp- meetings, held in a grove near by, to which thousands flock from all parts of the Bay. We conjectured that the reason for the perhaps unusual, if not unhealthful development of the religious sentiment here, was the fact that a large portion of the population are women whose husbands and sons are either abroad on the sea, or else drowned, and there is nobody but they and the ministers left behind.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“There exists a species of transcendental ventriloquism by means of which men can be made to believe that something said on earth comes from Heaven.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
