Lands

Famous quotes containing the word lands:

    he was nothing to be won or lost.
    All lands to him were Ithaca: love-tossed
    He loathed to fraud, yet would not bed alone.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    Old men who never cheated, never doubted,
    Communicated monthly, sit and stare
    At the new suburb stretched beyond the run-way
    Where a young man lands hatless from the air.
    Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    Joseph, when I had jewels and lands and palaces, I was often weary and discontent. When everything was taken away, except my life, I learned that the way to be really happy is to serve others, to be needed.
    —Adele Comandini. Edward Sutherland. Madam Tanya (Maria Ouspenskaya)
