Famous quotes containing the words stony and/or brook:

    “Before I finally went into winter quarters in November, I used to resort to the north- east side of Walden, which the sun, reflected from the pitch pine woods and the stony shore, made the fireside of the pond; it is so much pleasanter and wholesomer to be warmed by the sun while you can be, than by an artificial fire. I thus warmed myself by the still glowing embers which the summer, like a departed hunter, had left.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “When a man lives with God, his voice shall be as sweet as the murmur of the brook and the rustle of the corn.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
