Famous quotes containing the words fall, creek, falls, state and/or park:

    the whole seems to fall into a shape
    As if I saw alike my work and self
    And all that I was born to be and do,
    A twilight-piece. Love, we are in God’s hand.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    State of Oklahoma, U.S. relief program (1935-1943)

    This falls out better than I could devise.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    If I place love above everything, it is because for me it is the most desperate, the most despairing state of affairs imaginable.
    André Breton (1896–1966)

    The label of liberalism is hardly a sentence to public igominy: otherwise Bruce Springsteen would still be rehabilitating used Cadillacs in Asbury Park and Jane Fonda, for all we know, would be just another overweight housewife.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
