Famous quotes containing the word lands:
“I sat upon the shore
Fishing, with the arid plain behind me
Shall I at least set my lands in order?”

Without a pilot it runs and falls,
Blessing all lands with its charity.”

Communicated monthly, sit and stare
At the new suburb stretched beyond the run-way
Where a young man lands hatless from the air.”
