Earth Signs

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or signs:

    Earth laughs in flowers, to see her boastful boys
    Earth-proud, proud of the earth which is not theirs;
    Who steer the plough, but cannot steer their feet
    Clear of the grave.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Cows wandered through the streets.... Vegetables grew chiefly in cans, and stream-beds and caƱons glittered with these omnipresent signs of civilization.
    —Administration in the State of Colo, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
