Lands

Famous quotes containing the word lands:

    This is my home, the country where my heart is;
    Here are my hopes, my dreams, my holy shrine;
    But other hearts in other lands are beating
    With hopes and dreams as true and high as mine.
    Lloyd Stone (b. 1912)

    Israel, and you who call yourself Israel, the Church that calls itself Israel, and the revolt that calls itself Israel, and every nation chosen to be a nation—none of these lands is yours, all of you are thieves of holiness, all of you at war with Mercy.
    Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    I sat upon the shore
    Fishing, with the arid plain behind me
    Shall I at least set my lands in order?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
