Suitable Girl

Famous quotes containing the words suitable and/or girl:

    Who should come to my lodge this morning but a true Homeric or Paphlagonian man,—he had so suitable and poetic a name that I am sorry I cannot print it here,—a Canadian, a woodchopper and post-maker, who can hole fifty posts in a day, who made his last supper on a woodchuck which his dog caught.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Where is the Mississippi panorama
    And the girl who played the piano?
    Where are you, Walt?
    The Open Road goes to the used-car lot.
