Famous quotes containing the words landmark and/or decisions:

    They throw in Drummer Hodge, to rest
    Uncoffined—just as found:
    His landmark is a kopje-crest
    That breaks the veldt around;
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Most of my decisions in life seem absent-minded but inevitable.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
