Famous quotes containing the words domain and/or names:

    No domain of nature is quite closed to man at all times.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I do not see why, since America and her autumn woods have been discovered, our leaves should not compete with the precious stones in giving names to colors; and, indeed, I believe that in course of time the names of some of our trees and shrubs, as well as flowers, will get into our popular chromatic nomenclature.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
