Famous quotes containing the words team and/or mate:
“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“A master of men was the Goodly Fere,
A mate of the wind and sea,
If they think they ha slain our Goodly Fere
They are fools eternally.
I ha seen him eat o the honey-comb
Sin they nailed him to the tree.”
—Ezra Pound (18851972)
