West Bridgewater

Famous quotes containing the words west and/or bridgewater:

    It is queer how it is always one’s virtues and not one’s vices that precipitate one into disaster.
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    I have heard of a minister, who had been a fisherman, being settled in Bridgewater for as long a time as he could tell a cod from a haddock. Generous as it seems, this condition would empty most country pulpits forthwith, for it is long since the fishers of men were fishermen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
