Famous quotes containing the word lands:
“Oh, never this whelming east wind swells
But it seems like the sea’s return
To the ancient lands where it left the shells
Before the age of the fern....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“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)
