Reflections from the North Country Quotes

“So we’ll fill her up til de bottle’s drain
An’ drink to de Voyageur.”
― Sigurd F. Olson, Reflections from the North Country

“So dat’s de reason I drink tonight
To de men of de Grand Nor’west
For hees heart was young, an hees heart was light
So long as he’s leevin dere— I’m proud of the sam blood in my vein,
I’m a son of de Nort’ Win’ wance again—”
― Sigurd F. Olson, Reflections from the North Country
