Born California

Famous quotes containing the words born and/or california:

“it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.

And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
their goods;
And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
armed men.”
—Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)

“We have advanced by leaps to the Pacific, and left many a lesser Oregon and California unexplored behind us.”
