Famous quotes containing the words greenland, home and/or rule:

    I was the toast of two continents: Greenland and Australia.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    Not too many years ago, a child’s experience was limited by how far he or she could ride a bicycle or by the physical boundaries that parents set. Today ... the real boundaries of a child’s life are set more by the number of available cable channels and videotapes, by the simulated reality of videogames, by the number of megabytes of memory in the home computer. Now kids can go anywhere, as long as they stay inside the electronic bubble.
    Richard Louv (20th century)

    For all of us Frenchmen, the guiding rule of our epoch is to be faithful to France.
    Charles De Gaulle (1890–1970)
