Slave Girl

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or girl:

“In some withdrawn, unpublic mead
Let me sigh upon a reed,
Or in the woods, with leafy din,
Whisper the still evening in:
Some still work give me to do,—
Only—be it near to you!
For I’d rather be thy child
And pupil, in the forest wild,
Than be the king of men elsewhere,
And most sovereign slave of care:
To have one moment of thy dawn,
Than share the city’s year forlorn.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I’m going out and get a girl for my picture, even if I have to marry one.”
—James Creelman. Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack. Carl Denham (Robert Armstrong)
