Teams Enter

Famous quotes containing the words teams and/or enter:

    A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    License my roving hands, and let them go
    Before, behind, between, above, below.
    O my America! my new-found-land,
    My kingdom, safeliest when with one man manned,
    My mine of precious stones, my empery,
    How blest am I in this discovering thee!
    To enter in these bonds is to be free;
    Then where my hand is set, my seal shall be.
    John Donne (1572–1631)
