Timber Workers

Famous quotes containing the words timber and/or workers:

    “Nothing is so beautiful as spring—
    When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
    Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
    Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
    The ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.”
    —Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    “I suspect that American workers have come to lack a work ethic. They do not live by the sweat of their brow.”
    —Kiichi Miyazawa (b. 1919)
