Famous quotes containing the word land:
“The land was ours before we were the land’s.
She was our land more than a hundred years
Before we were her people.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Oh, it’s home again, and home again, America for me!
I want a ship that’s westward bound to plow the rolling sea,
To the blessed Land of Room Enough beyond the ocean bars,
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag is full of stars.”
—Henry Van Dyke (1852–1933)
