Lands

Famous quotes containing the word lands:

    There dwelt a man in faire Westmerland,
    Jonnë Armestrong men did him call,
    He had nither lands nor rents coming in,
    Yet he kept eight score men in his hall.
    Unknown. Johnie Armstrong (l. 1–4)

    I call
    to the spirits of other lands to make fecund my existence
    Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)

    Joseph, when I had jewels and lands and palaces, I was often weary and discontent. When everything was taken away, except my life, I learned that the way to be really happy is to serve others, to be needed.
    —Adele Comandini. Edward Sutherland. Madam Tanya (Maria Ouspenskaya)
