Lands

Famous quotes containing the word lands:

    When I think of our lands I think of the house
    And the table that holds a platter of pears,
    Vermilion smeared over green, arranged for show.

    Not that the Red Indian will ever possess the broad lands of America. At least I presume not. But his ghost will.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Oh, never this whelming east wind swells
    But it seems like the sea’s return
    To the ancient lands where it left the shells
    Before the age of the fern....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
