Sweat Discovered

Famous quotes containing the words sweat and/or discovered:

    “Although I’d lie lapped up in linen
    A deal I’d sweat and little earn
    If I should live as live the neighbours,”
    Cried the beggar, Billy Byrne....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Have we even so much as discovered and settled the shores? Let a man travel on foot along the coast ... and tell me if it looks like a discovered and settled country, and not rather, for the most part, like a desolate island, and No-Man’s Land.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
