Famous quotes containing the words land held, land and/or held:

    We were uncertain whether the water floated the land, or the land held the water in its bosom. It was such a season, in short, as that in which one of our Concord poets sailed on its stream, and sung its quiet glories.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There will, however, be no one in need among you, because the LORD is sure to bless you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you as a possession to occupy, if only you will obey the LORD your God by diligently observing this entire commandment that I command you today.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 15:4,5.

    And knew that nature could not more refine
    What it had given in a looking-glass
    And held there, after the living body’s line
    Has moved wherever it must move ...
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
