Famous quotes containing the words teams and/or won:
“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)
“he was nothing to be won or lost.
All lands to him were Ithaca: love-tossed
He loathed to fraud, yet would not bed alone.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
