Land Area

Famous quotes containing the words land and/or area:

    The land is numb.
    It stands beneath the feet, and one may come
    Walking securely, till the sea extends
    Its limber margin, and precision ends.
    Yvor Winters (1900–1968)

    Now for civil service reform. Legislation must be prepared and executive rules and maxims. We must limit and narrow the area of patronage. We must diminish the evils of office-seeking. We must stop interference of federal officers with elections. We must be relieved of congressional dictation as to appointments.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
