Famous quotes containing the words river, preserve, state and/or park:
“The name of the town isn’t important. It’s the one that’s just twenty-eight minutes from the big city. Twenty-three if you catch the morning express. It’s on a river and it’s got houses and stores and churches. And a main street. Nothing fancy like Broadway or Market, just plain Broadway. Drug, dry good, shoes. Those horrible little chain stores that breed like rabbits.”
—Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)
“I am I plus my surroundings and if I do not preserve the latter, I do not preserve myself.”
—José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
“All oppression creates a state of war.”
—Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)
“Therefore awake! make haste, I say,
And let us, without staying,
All in our gowns of green so gay
Into the Park a-maying!”
—Unknown. Sister, Awake! (L. 9–12)
