Famous quotes containing the word land:

    A land where all things always seemed the same!
    And round about the keel with faces pale,
    Dark faces pale against that rosy flame,
    The mild-eyed melancholy Lotos-eaters came.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    The shattered water made a misty din.
    Great waves looked over others coming in,
    And thought of doing something to the shore
    That water never did to land before.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
