Eastern Land

Famous quotes containing the words eastern and/or land:

    Should the German people lay down their arms, the Soviets ... would occupy all eastern and south-eastern Europe together with the greater part of the Reich. Over all this territory, which with the Soviet Union included, would be of enormous extent, an iron curtain would at once descend.

    This blessèd plot, this earth, this realm, this England
    This nurse, this teeming womb of royal kings,

    This land of such dear souls, this dear dear land.
