Famous quotes containing the words singh and/or man:
“An ill-trained doctor is a threat to life, an ill-trained priest a threat to faith.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
“When I began to have a fire at evening, before I plastered my house, the chimney carried smoke particularly well, because of the numerous chinks between the boards.... Should not every apartment in which man dwells be lofty enough to create some obscurity overhead, where flickering shadows may play at evening about the rafters? These forms are more agreeable to the fancy and imagination than fresco paintings or other the most expensive furniture.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
