Wood Smoke

Famous quotes containing the words wood and/or smoke:

    One might say that the true subject of the horror genre is the struggle for recognition of all that our civilization represses and oppresses.
    —Robin Wood (b. 1931)

    In winter we lead a more inward life. Our hearts are warm and cheery, like cottages under drifts, whose windows and doors are half concealed, but from whose chimneys the smoke cheerfully ascends.... We enjoy now, not an Oriental, but a Boreal leisure, around warm stoves and fireplaces, and watch the shadow of motes in the sunbeams.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
