Famous quotes containing the words land and/or held:

    It is a noble land that God has given us: a land that can feed and clothe the world; a land whose coastlines would enclose half the countries of Europe; a land set like a sentinel between the two imperial oceans of the globe.
    Albert J. Beveridge (1862–1927)

    Victory comes late—
    And is held low to freezing lips—
    Too rapt with frost
    To take it—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
