Land Area

Famous quotes containing the words land and/or area:

“The first day that we landed upon that fatal shore
The planters they came round us full twenty score or more,
They rank’d us up like horses, and sold us out of hand
Then yok’d us unto ploughs, my boys, to plow Van
Dieman’s Land.”
—Unknown. Van Dieman’s Land (l. 9–12)

“I am aware of the damp souls of housemaids
Sprouting despondently at area gates.”
