Famous quotes containing the words north, south, lawns and/or lawn:

    Biography is a very definite region bounded on the north by history, on the south by fiction, on the east by obituary, and on the west by tedium.
    Philip Guedalla (1889–1944)

    The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.
    C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)

    Hope and the future for me are not in lawns and cultivated fields, not in towns and cities, but in the impervious and quaking swamps.... I derive more of my subsistence from the swamps which surround my native town than from the cultivated gardens in the village.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Once our idea of heaven meant
    all the dead relatives waiting
    on the kept lawn of the many mansions
    as if, suddenly sinless, they had nothing
    to do. ...
    Deborah Digges (b. 1950)
