Famous quotes containing the words land and/or races:
“Far out of sight forever stands the sea,
Bounding the land with pale tranquillity.”
—Yvor Winters (1900–1968)
“Behind every individual closes organization; before him opens liberty,—the Better, the Best. The first and worse races are dead. The second and imperfect races are dying out, or remain for the maturing of the higher. In the latest race, in man, every generosity, every new perception, the love and praise he extorts from his fellows, are certificates of advance out of fate into freedom.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
