Famous quotes containing the words green and/or movement:

    I hunger to build them anew and sit on a green knoll apart....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Reporters for tabloid newspapers beat a path to the park entrance each summer when the national convention of nudists is held, but the cult’s requirement that visitors disrobe is an obstacle to complete coverage of nudist news. Local residents interested in the nudist movement but as yet unwilling to affiliate make observations from rowboats in Great Egg Harbor River.
