Start Symbol

Famous quotes containing the words start and/or symbol:

“It’s a funny thing about men, you know. They all start life being boys. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of these senators were boys once.”
—Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)

“The symbol of perpetual youth, the grass-blade, like a long green ribbon, streams from the sod into the summer, checked indeed by the frost, but anon pushing on again, lifting its spear of last year’s hay with the fresh life below. It grows as steadily as the rill oozes out of the ground.... So our human life but dies down to its root, and still puts forth its green blade to eternity.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
