Cross Country

Famous quotes containing the words cross and/or country:

“There is a mountain in the distant West
That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
Displays a cross of snow upon its side.
Such is the cross I wear upon my breast
These eighteen years, through all the changing scenes
And seasons, changeless since the day she died.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

“[N]o country can squander itself to prosperity on the ruin of its taxpayers.”
