Famous quotes containing the words mill, race and/or park:

    “War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse.... A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice—is often the means of their regeneration.”
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)

    “We are the party of all labor.
    The whole earth shall be ours to share
    And every race and craft our neighbor.
    No idle class shall linger there
    Like vultures on the wealth we render
    From field and factory, mill and mine.
    Tomorrow’s sun will rise in splendor
    And light us till the end of time.”
    —Eugène Pottier (1816–1887)

    “The park is filled with night and fog,
    The veils are drawn about the world,”
    —Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)
