Charles Dudley Warner Quotes
The Love Of Dirt Is Among The Earliest Of Passions, As It Is The Latest. Mud-pies Gratify One Of Our First And Best Instincts. So Long As We Are Dirty, We Are Pure. Fondness For The Ground Comes Back To A Man After He Has Run The Round Of Pleasure And Business, Eaten Dirt, And Sown Wild Oats, Drifted About The World, And Taken The Wind Of All Its Moods. The Love Of Digging In The Ground (or Of Looking On While He Pays Another To Dig) Is As Sure To Come Back To Him, As He Is Sure, At Last, To Go Under The Ground, And Stay There.
